Summary

Ukraine's defense ministry said Saturday that speed restrictions on SpaceX's Starlink and Starshield satellite systems have been fully restored, following overnight testing. The restrictions, which began around Oct. 14, had limited Ukrainian drone operations for intercepting Russian attacks and resupplying troops. Ukraine said connections are now operating at 400 kph, days after officials reported continued slowdowns despite Trump's earlier claim that the issue had been resolved.
