Ukraine’s president has told Elon Musk that restrictions on Starlink’s system have cost lives, linking access to the service with the consequences of the war between Ukraine and Russia.
The comments place Starlink at the centre of an ongoing discussion about the role of the system during the conflict. The Ukrainian president’s message was directed at Musk, who is associated with Starlink.
The issue is being examined in a report focused on what Starlink has to do with the Ukraine-Russia war. The supplied material does not provide further details about the restrictions, when they occurred or the number of lives allegedly affected.
The latest known position is that Ukraine’s president has publicly raised the human consequences of limiting access to Starlink. No further response from Musk or additional details about the system’s future use are provided.
