Dated the day this page was built. The link always leads to this event, even after the stories are regrouped.
Starshield, owned and operated by the War Department, is the military version of SpaceX’s Starlink satellite network and is used by Ukraine in its war against Russia.
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
“Our defence forces received no warning of such a restriction, and this led to the failure of a number of missions,” Beskrestnov said on Telegram.
Ukraine has already said that it did not receive the usual advance warning from its allies about some recent missile strikes on the capital.
SpaceX had introduced speed limits on the operation of its Starlink satellite internet terminals overnight, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s defense tech adviser, Serhii Beskrestnov.
“It’s clear that this action cannot be a coincidence and is connected to the current political situation.”
