Ukrainian forces are still facing disruptions to vital battlefield communications, defence officials say, despite Donald Trump’s assertion that restrictions have been lifted. The disruptions are renewing questions about Kyiv’s dependence on a satellite network controlled by the United States.
EeuronewsOriginal★★★☆☆2026-10-23 10:07
Former Ukrainian Defense Ministry adviser Sergey Sternenko said some Starlink and Starshield restrictions remained in place, disrupting some military missions again. Some units reported that Starlink worked on drones flying above the earlier speed limits, but restrictions still affected certain operations.
Trump said the service was back at full speed, but a European official disputed that it was fully functioning. Ukrainian officials say Starshield restrictions have disabled many drones used to strike behind the frontlines and hampered air defences. The Trump administration, Kyiv officials and Elon Musk have traded blame, while responsibility for the limits remains unresolved.
Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal launched an inquiry into sudden restrictions on Starshield services in Ukraine, which hampered efforts to intercept Russian drones. He asked the Pentagon who ordered the limits and for information on the US military’s reliance on Starlink. A Ukrainian official said the 161 kph cap remains in place.
Starlink’s military version remains subject to speed limits in Ukraine, the Associated Press reported, citing a senior European official who said Ukrainian authorities have not been told who ordered the restrictions or why. Trump said they had been lifted, while the Wall Street Journal reported he personally asked Musk to remove them. Ukraine’s military said Starshield terminals lost connection when drones exceeded 160 kilometers per hour. Trump denied ordering the limits; Musk said Starshield decisions are made by the Pentagon and White House.
Trump said Thursday that Ukraine’s access to the Starshield satellite system had been restored after Kyiv reported restrictions. Trump administration officials and their allies have blamed one another, while a European official said the limits were still in place in Ukraine on Thursday.
US President Donald Trump said Elon Musk had restored Starshield military communications in Ukraine. Reports said connection speeds for Ukrainian equipment had been capped, and that Trump asked Musk to reinstate the service. Kyiv has not confirmed whether the restrictions were lifted and has not received a clear explanation of who ordered them or why.
Trump says Elon Musk restored Ukraine’s access to Starlink, but he declined to explain how the service’s speed and access restrictions were lifted. Ukrainian officials had said sudden limits disrupted the military, and connectivity reportedly remains spotty despite the service’s return.
Ukraine’s military says it has resumed using Starlink at maximum speed without restrictions, according to a report. Trump earlier said Kyiv’s access to the Starshield military-grade service had been restored, while a Ukrainian official denied that restrictions had been lifted, saying nothing had changed overall.
President Donald Trump spoke with SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and asked him to remove restrictions on the company’s Starlink satellite system in Ukraine, the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.
Donald Trump says Elon Musk has restored Ukraine’s internet access through Starlink. Volodymyr Zelensky had said the military’s connection was not yet fully restored, while Musk has repeatedly denied imposing restrictions. Trump declined to address a report that he pressed Musk, saying only that Musk had put the service back.
US President Donald Trump said Ukraine’s access to the military-grade Starshield satellite service had been restored. He declined to say whether he had contacted SpaceX CEO Elon Musk to ask him to lift restrictions on Ukraine’s use of the system, adding that their relationship was very good. The Wall Street Journal reported that the service was operating more normally after a conversation between the two, though some Ukrainian officials said it was not fully restored.
A Ukrainian official said Starlink in Ukraine remains capped at 161 kilometers per hour, rejecting reports that service returned to normal after a call between Trump and Musk. The cap continues to constrain military operations, while Ukraine seeks to restore the previous speeds and determine why the restriction was imposed.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Trump asked Musk to end Starlink’s slowdown. The paper previously reported that Musk, a critic of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, had ordered SpaceX’s Starlink service to be slowed.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday, citing U.S. officials, that President Donald Trump called Elon Musk and asked him to remove restrictions on Ukraine’s use of Starlink.
The Wall Street Journal, citing sources, reports that Donald Trump asked Elon Musk to lift restrictions on Starlink’s military service in Ukraine. Trump was frustrated by a speed cap of about 160 kilometers per hour. U.S. and Ukrainian officials said the system began working “more normally” after their call, and Ukrainian drone commanders said the limits had been lifted, though testing continued.
Russia’s Defense Ministry said air defenses intercepted and destroyed 443 Ukrainian fixed-wing drones over Russian regions overnight.

Putin and Zelenskyy said Thursday they were open to peace negotiations, while Russia and Ukraine continued strikes overnight.
Vladimir Putin said Thursday that Russia was prepared to resume three-way talks with Ukraine and the United States, but to discuss security terms for a final peace deal rather than a short ceasefire.
Vladimir Putin said Russia was ready to resume trilateral contacts with Ukraine and the United States. He said negotiations should seek a lasting end to the conflict and security for Russia and Ukraine after a peace agreement, rather than a temporary ceasefire. Putin also backed discussing Europe’s overall security architecture. A Kremlin aide said talks could take place in mid-November.
Putin said Russia is not preparing for war with Europe and described EU claims of a Russian war threat as “political schizophrenia.” He said Moscow and Washington had agreed to be ready to resume Russia-US-Ukraine talks on the security of Russia and Ukraine after peace is achieved.

The CCP’s 20th Central Committee will hold its Fifth Plenum in Beijing from October 26 to 29, with comprehensive and strict party governance as its theme. Anti-corruption investigations have intensified ahead of the meeting, including probes of Jiangxi governor Ye Jianchun and retired former Chongqing mayor Huang Qifan. Analysts say the campaign has not effectively deterred corruption and reflects Xi Jinping’s challenge in disciplining the bureaucracy and ensuring policy execution. China has no clear successor; naming one could create a rival power center, while not doing so helps preserve Xi’s authority.
