‘He put it back’: Trump says Ukraine’s Starlink restored, stays silent on Musk

 Ukraine depends heavily on Starlink for communications between military units, coordinating operations and receiving early warnings during Russian missile attacks. The satellite-based network also supports the use of drones, which Ukraine deploys both to strike Russian targets and to defend against incoming attacks. Disruptions to connectivity can therefore affect the military’s ability to operate drones and respond to Russian assaults. Ukraine depends heavily on Starlink for communications between military units, coordinating operations and receiving early warnings during Russian missile attacks.
