Ukraine claims workaround for Starlink limits on Russia strikes

Ukraine has announced a method to bypass Starlink restrictions for strikes against Russia, with Fire Point's technical director claiming the approach enables partial use of Starshield for attacks. The company's discovery reportedly allows Ukrainian forces to circumvent limitations on the satellite system for offensive operations targeting Russian territory. This development follows ongoing restrictions imposed on Starlink's military use. Russia is meanwhile deploying a new electronic warfare system called "Volna Kupol Garant" to protect border-region facilities from Ukrainian drone attacks, with serial production launched after testing completed in early 2026.
