Ukraine's Starlink service has been restricted, disrupting military operations as Russian missiles strike Kyiv's energy infrastructure. The move comes as Ukraine faces ongoing attacks despite warnings from Western allies.
Starlink access was limited to 100 mph for military packages, according to a Ukrainian adviser. The restriction follows reports of missile attacks on Kyiv's power plants and a high-rise building, with no early warning from allies. Trump's energy ceasefire deal with Russia has raised concerns about intelligence sharing.
Ukraine's military relies on Starlink for critical operations, including drone strikes. The restrictions and lack of warning from Western partners have raised questions about the effectiveness of intelligence sharing and the impact on military operations. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between Ukraine and the U.S. over Russian oil refineries and energy infrastructure.
Ukraine's leader has accused the U.S. of not providing warnings about missile attacks, despite continued strikes on energy infrastructure. The lack of communication has raised concerns about the safety of military operations and the effectiveness of intelligence sharing with Western allies.
