Trump says Musk restored Ukraine's Starlink access after Zelensky reported issues
President Donald Trump said Elon Musk has restored Ukraine's internet access, hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported connectivity was not yet fully restored. The Starlink service is critical for Ukraine's military drone operations against Russia. Musk has denied restricting access, while the Trump administration insists it did not instruct his company to limit the service. The restrictions coincided with Trump pressuring Zelensky to stop attacking Russian oil refineries, and Trump declined to comment on reports he urged Musk to restore access. Ukraine relies on Starlink for battle communications and early warning systems. Zelensky said speeds had not returned to normal, and the Wall Street Journal reported the system was working more normally after Trump's call to Musk, though BBC News has not confirmed that report.
