> Elon Musk said SpaceX had restricted Ukraine’s Starlink service, after Ukrainian officials reported connectivity had stabilized. He accused Ukraine of breaching the terms by using the civilian network for military activity, while denying responsibility for a simultaneous issue with the US-run Starshield system. Ukraine’s presidential adviser called Musk’s claim “very strange.”
