Ukraine loses Starlink access near the front

Ukraine's Starlink and Starshield connectivity near the front line has been restored and is now described as stable. Elon Musk has confirmed that SpaceX itself imposed the restrictions on Ukraine's Starlink service, contradicting earlier claims that US government decisions on Starshield were responsible rather than SpaceX. The admission follows weeks of disputed curbs during which Ukrainian officials said limits persisted even after President Trump said they had been lifted, with degraded service hampering drone operations and battlefield communications.
