Thorkill described on October 14, 2026, reports from Ukrainian channels on Telegram about restrictions on Starlink terminals and connectivity issues during missions, which — as he wrote — were supposed to involve strike drones. According to his account, a former advisor to the ex-Minister of National Defense, Sternenko, wrote that connectivity started to drop off at speeds exceeding 160 km/h. The president of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky's advisor on drone technology, Sergij Beskretnow, was said to have informed that SpaceX imposed speed restrictions for Starlink terminals used in motion. As Thorkill reported, Beskretnow indicated a limit of 100 miles per hour for the military service StarShield. Sternenko later relayed military reports of connection drops at speeds of 60–70 km/h. Thorkill wrote that the Financial Times took up the issue, describing terminal problems at speeds above 160 km/h. Connectivity issues with StarShield were also reported by the command of the VII Corps of Rapid Reaction. UP journalist Jula Kirylenko, however, noted that the information was not fully precise, as other units did not report problems. Thorkill also cited a post from a user on X from Ukraine, who wrote that standard Starlink services were functioning unchanged, and he could neither confirm nor deny the reports of StarShield restrictions. The author argued that the reports mixed two services. According to him, civilian Starlink had been limited to speeds of 75–80 km/h in Ukraine since the end of 2025, while military StarShield was managed by the Pentagon, not Elon Musk. Thorkill added that a limit of 160 km/h should not be a significant problem, as Ukrainian strike drones FP-2 and AN-196 Liutyj were supposed to fly at such speeds. Thorkill wrote that he suspected an attempt to provoke another media dispute by Zelensky's camp. He linked this to Zelensky and his political environment's accusations against Donald Trump for failing to warn about the launch of ballistic missiles towards Kyiv. According to the author, Ukrainian troll farms connected to the government spread these accusations, and it later turned out that Russia attacked Kyiv with S-400 system missiles. Thorkill claimed that these were difficult to detect by satellites, as their engines operated for only 10–20 seconds, providing a small thermal signature; he added that previously, American satellites also did not detect them. #Starlink #Ukraina #technologia (translated)

Emrah Erken criticized the UN Human Rights Council and Navi Pillay. He wrote that the body had condemned Israel for human rights violations a total of 116 times since its founding in 2006, while China, Turkey, and Qatar had not been condemned even once. The United Nations, he claimed, had turned human rights into a weapon against the West, particularly Israel. Pillay served as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights from 2008 to 2014. During this time, the Human Rights Council never condemned China, Erken wrote. UN Watch and former UN employee Emma Reilly accused Pillay of having passed the names of more than 50 dissidents, including Uighurs, to China under her leadership. Additionally, Pillay stayed away from the Nobel Prize ceremony in 2010 in honor of the imprisoned Chinese dissident Liu Xiaobo. Erken further wrote that Pillay later led a UN commission of inquiry that accused Israel of genocide and previously signed calls for sanctions against Israel. In 2012, she criticized the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo for its Muhammad cartoons, describing the drawings as malicious and intentionally provocative. Critics also accused her of opting for appeasement and restrictions on freedom of expression rather than defending it in the debate over Muhammad cartoons. Erken called it a shame that Pillay would receive this year's Nobel Peace Prize, and expressed opposition to post-colonialism, the "Woke Left," and Pillay. #Menschenrechte #UN #Israel (translated)
