Ukraine faces systematic restrictions of Musk's satellites again, Zelensky is angry

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported ongoing systematic disruptions to the Starshield satellite system, complicating the military's ability to intercept Russian drones. The limitations on Starshield, a military version of Starlink, hinder Ukraine's air defense capabilities, as the system fails for devices moving faster than 161 km/h. Zelenskyy emphasized that these issues are not random but systematic, leading to increased casualties among Ukrainians. Previous problems with Starlink were noted in October, with Elon Musk claiming Ukraine violated usage terms. U.S. President Donald Trump stated he was unaware of any access restrictions but mentioned that access was restored after he learned of the issue.
