Zelensky reveals Starlink restrictions for Ukrainian troops and calls for communications to be restored2026-10-16Zelensky called the restriction on Starlink service for Ukrainian troops a serious mistake and asked Elon Musk to restore communications.The Ukrainian military reported that Starlink terminals lost connectivity when moving at speeds above 160 km/h, disrupting several important missions.Zelensky said he had proposed to Donald Trump that Starlink service be provided in Russia so Ukrainian forces could strike ballistic missile launchers.Former Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov said Starlink service at speeds of up to 160 km/h is being restored.According to TASS, Trump announced on October 22 that Ukraine’s access to Starshield had been restored, but because the restrictions were not fully lifted, Ukrainian operations were disrupted again.Musk said commercial Starlink is not authorized for offensive drone strikes; Ukraine denied using it for such attacks."Це серйозна помилка": Зеленський різко розкритикував обмеження Starlink (TSN)Зеленський попередив про "велику помилку Маска", яка коштуватиме багатьох життів українців (TSN)Musk restricts Starlink service to punish Kiev — magazine (TASS)Маск відхрестився, Зеленський говорить про зраду: хто «відключив» українські дрони – The Guardian (TSN)Мъск най-после призна, че той е ограничил Starlink за Украйна (Sega)Trump defends himself and Elon Musk after Zelenskiy's criticism over Starlink (The News International)Пентагон отказался расследовать ограничения работы Starlink в Украине - Minval Politika (Minval Politika)
