North Korea stops jamming South's GPS

North Korea has stopped transmitting signals which jammed the GPS systems of hundreds of civilian aircraft and ships in South Korea for two weeks, officials said Tuesday. The state Korea Communications Commission said the signals designed to jam global positioning systems halted as of 8:34pm on Sunday.
The transport ministry confirmed civilian flights had not been affected since Sunday night. South Korean officials said the signals originated from the North's border city of Kaesong and began on April 28, forcing sea and air traffic to use other navigational equipment to avoid compromising safety. The reason for the jamming, which the North has not admitted, was unclear but it came at a time of high cross-border tensions.
