Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has reported significant disruptions to the Starshield satellite internet service, which are limiting communication capabilities for his forces along the front lines. According to Zelensky, the speed restrictions imposed on the service are hindering Ukraine’s defensive efforts and effectively assisting Russia in its war efforts.

This was reported by the Jerusalem Post and The Guardian. Further details regarding the nature of the disruptions or the company’s response have not yet been released.
