Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s office confirmed on Wednesday that the country’s military has been cut off from full access to SpaceX’s Starlink satellite system as it seeks to defend itself against a now nearly five-year Russian invasion.
“Tonight SpaceX introduced a speed limit for the Starlink terminals in motion,” said Presidential Adviser Sergiy Beskrestnov.
“Our defence forces were not warned about this restriction, which led to the disruption of a number of missions,” he added.
“Obviously, this action cannot be a coincidence and is linked to the current political situation,” he added.
