Ukraine resumes strikes on Russian oil refineries after US cuts Starlink support

dn.se (Swedish) —

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Ukraine is resuming strikes on Russian oil refineries, accusing the United States of betrayal during his visit to England. Zelenskyy claims Washington issued an ultimatum to halt such attacks or lose intelligence sharing, and that the US subsequently reduced Ukraine's Starlink satellite connection speed. Elon Musk says the US government, ultimately President Trump, controls all such restrictions. The rift marks the worst US-Ukraine relations since a 2025 Oval Office confrontation. Trump, facing domestic pressure over gasoline prices, lifted Russian sanctions and declared an "energy ceasefire" that both warring nations rejected.
