Wikipedia describes them as Centrist. This appears to be from their blog though.

Times of Israel has offered a third-party blogging platform since 2012 which allows writers who are not affiliated with the news site to publish online.

Yes, a search for 'GPS jamming Baltic' turns up hits from everything from DW to the Financial Times.

It's a problem for maritime and aviation navigation, and a problem for both sides in the war in Ukraine. Some drones are now using fiber optic tethers to get around the jamming, that's not much of an option for civilian traffic though.
