Narrative:
Passing FL260 on climb out from llbg; got 'ads B out right' EICAS message. Performed checklist and received 'ads B out left' message. 5 minutes later at FL300 in cruise received 'unable rnp'; 'runway system'; 'terr position'; 'GPS' additional messages. Rnp showed 2.75 miles right of course. Contacted nicosia center to verify position and used rds VOR for navigation. Contacted dispatch and maintenance. Maintenance showed multiple aircraft navigation failures downloaded. He suggested we may fly out of area of disturbance; something similar had happened in same area recently. Operations returned to normal when passing into greek airspace. All navigation systems returned to normal. Everyone involved seemed to believe we were being 'jammed' by possible military aircraft. Continued to destination.
