Trump punishing Ukraine? Musk's company restricts activity in the country

A Ukrainian security official identified a reduction in Starlink terminal activity in Ukraine. The concern in the country is that the step, by the satellite company owned by Elon Musk, was taken at the request of President Trump against the backdrop of the failure of the energy ceasefire with Russia. Zelensky said no warning was received about launches from Russia during the first wave of the attack.

A Ukrainian security official identified a reduction in Starlink terminal activity in Ukraine overnight. The concern in the country is that the step, by the satellite company owned by Elon Musk, a close associate of President Trump, was taken at Trump's request against the backdrop of the failure of the energy ceasefire with Russia. Starlink terminals are a central means of internet access in Ukraine amid the Russian attack, and the disruptions hampered critical missions. President Zelensky said Ukraine did not receive a warning about launches from Russia during the first wave of drone and missile fire, but did receive a warning in the second wave. Trump claimed on Tuesday that the US has not stopped intelligence cooperation with Ukraine. The report details Ukrainian suspicions and concerns, while noting American denial.
