Microwave oven influences MS13's

Hi all,

When I turn on my microwave oven, to heat a meal, my MS13's within ~5 metres distance will start sending 'On' signals.
The sensors will repeat sending signals every 5-10 seconds.

Can someone explain why this is happening?
As fas as I know, the MS13's contain a PIR. Why would a PIR be influenced by a microwave oven?

Anyone else also experiencing this with their microwave oven?

Thank you for your answers.

I would check the microwave oven for RF leakage.
