WorldUkraine's air defenses again face problems amid Starlink disruptions

Ukraine is again having trouble coordinating its air defenses against Russian drones amid disruptions to Starlink, said Sergey Beskrestnov, an adviser to Vladimir Zelensky on communications and unmanned systems. He said restricted speeds were affecting communications with helicopters pursuing Shahed drones and jet interceptors targeting jet-powered Shaheds. Zelensky said Thursday that Starshield had suffered new major disruptions, with satellite communication speed falling to 161 kilometers per hour.
