Musk Says Ukraine Broke Starlink Terms Before Access Loss

Elon Musk accused Ukraine of violating Starlink terms of service through a loophole he said was closed last week, following Ukraine's loss of critical Starlink access earlier this month. Ukraine regained access after a slowdown that disrupted missions, particularly impacting Starshield, its military-grade service used to intercept Russian Shahed drones. Musk disputed claims of offensive use, stating civilian Starlink was never allowed for drone strikes to kill people. Ukrainian officials denied the characterization, citing technical limitations, and blamed SpaceX for speed limits. The disruption occurred amid tensions between President Trump and Zelenskyy, with Musk suggesting Zelenskyy should leave, highlighting Musk's influence in the conflict.
