Starshield restrictions hamper Ukraine's ability to defend energy infrastructure from Russian drones, Zelensky says
The Kyiv Independent reports President Zelensky's claim that SpaceX's speed restrictions on Starshield terminals — capped at 161 kilometers per hour — are preventing Ukrainian interceptor drones from downing Russia's jet-powered Shahed drones as attacks intensify on Ukraine's energy grid. Zelensky calls the limits "very dangerous" for Ukraine's sovereignty, and the Congressional Ukraine Caucus has demanded their immediate restoration.
