Ukraine discussed the issue with Musk's company.

SpaceX representatives stated that the speed limitation on Starshield terminals in Ukraine was caused by technical issues.

This was reported by journalist Nick Shifrin, according to RBC-Ukraine citing his post on X.

“Ukraine discussed with SpaceX the speed limitations faced by the Ukrainian military along the line of contact and in the occupied Ukrainian territories. In response, SpaceX stated that this is a technical issue,” Nick Shifrin wrote.

According to the journalist, he received this information from Ukraine’s Chargé d’Affaires ad interim in the U.S. Denis Senik.

At the same time, it is noted that Kyiv has not yet received further clarification as to why the speed limits in the occupied territories have been in effect for five consecutive days.

As a reminder, On November 12, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that in recent days, large-scale disruptions have been observed in the operation of Starshield on Ukrainian territory. According to the head of state, disruptions are being recorded along the entire front line and in the temporarily occupied territories.

“Unfortunately, there have already been hits because the interceptors are not reaching sufficient speed and are unable to intercept in time. Unfortunately, this is helping the Russians kill more Ukrainians and deliver more precision strikes against Ukraine,” Zelenskyy emphasized.
