Ukraine reports new speed restrictions on Starshield satellite network
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says systematic speed limits on the Starshield satellite system are hindering military operations along the front line. The restrictions reportedly disconnect terminals moving faster than 161 km/h.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine's access to the Starshield satellite network has been throttled, marking the second such incident in recent weeks. According to officials, the speed limitations are affecting military operations by disconnecting terminals that exceed a speed of 161 km/h, which impacts the effectiveness of interceptor drones. The Ukrainian government is currently attempting to determine the cause of these disruptions with American counterparts. While the source of the restrictions remains unclear, the issue has sparked concerns regarding its impact on Ukraine's defensive capabilities against Russian strikes.
