> Ukrainian officials say SpaceX restricted Starlink services, disrupting military operations and limiting Ukraine’s ability to counter Russian drones. The accusation followed a second consecutive night of Russian ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv, which killed at least nine people and damaged electricity and heating infrastructure. Poland’s foreign minister also criticized Musk over the alleged slowdown.
