Musk: Ukraine violated the conditions of the Starlink satellite system

Elon Musk stated that the Ukrainian military violated Starlink's terms of service by using it for offensive drone attacks. He clarified that Starlink, intended for civilian use, should not be employed for lethal operations. Musk's comments followed Ukrainian President Zelensky's announcement that Starlink and its military variant, Starshield, had restored connectivity. Ukraine relies on both services for military operations, and previous connectivity issues had hindered drone control and missions. The situation has heightened tensions between Kyiv and Washington, with reports indicating Musk ordered limitations on military satellite speeds. He confirmed SpaceX's actions while noting that the U.S. government oversees changes to Starshield.
