Ukraine says its Starlink satellite communications connection has returned to stable operating conditions following days of restrictions that disrupted military connectivity. Ukrainian Defence Minister Yevhenii Khmara reported that connection speeds had recovered to more than 400 km/h, a development considered important for frontline communications, drone operations, logistics and defence.
The disruption raised questions about Ukraine’s reliance on SpaceX’s Starlink network and its military-focused counterpart, Starshield. Ukrainian officials reported that restrictions had affected certain drone operations, while disagreements continued over who was responsible for imposing the limits. The restoration marks an important development, although questions surrounding the restrictions remain part of the wider story.
🎙️ In this episode: We report on Ukraine’s latest Starlink connectivity update, the role of satellite communications in modern warfare, and the wider implications for Ukraine’s military operations and international relations.
