Zelensky confirms Starlink speeds fully restored after weeklong disruption

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Saturday that Starlink and Starshield satellite connections were restored to normal speeds after restrictions imposed by Elon Musk's SpaceX since around Oct. 14 hampered drone operations used to intercept Russian attacks and resupply front-line troops. Zelensky has characterized the restrictions as retaliation by Trump and Musk over his refusal to halt strikes on Russian oil refineries, a claim that led to a blame game between the White House and SpaceX.
