Volodymyr Zelensky said Starlink restrictions remain in force in Ukraine, with tests showing a maximum speed of 161 kph. Kyiv still hopes SpaceX and the US administration will lift them, a process that could take two to three days or longer. Trump said Ukraine’s access to the Starshield military satellite system had been restored but did not identify who ordered it.
Since last week, Ukraine has reported restrictions on Starshield, a version of SpaceX’s Starlink, saying they are hampering its military operations against Russia.
The Economist, citing sources, reported that Elon Musk may have restricted Starlink access for Ukrainian forces to punish Ukraine for strikes on Russian oil refineries. It said the decision appeared to come from a small circle around Donald Trump, Musk and Steve Witkoff. Trump said Ukraine’s access to Starshield had been restored on October 22.
Ukrainian forces report widespread Starlink disruptions despite Donald Trump’s claim that Elon Musk had lifted service restrictions. Ukrainian officials say the speed limits remain in place, hindering fast-moving military equipment, including drones, from staying connected and affecting offensive operations and interception of Russian attacks.
Ukrainian officials say Starshield terminals remain severely impaired 11 days after problems began, despite Trump saying restrictions were restored. Speed limits continue to hamper Ukrainian drone operations.
