Nacho Montes de Oca stated that Elon Musk had limited the speed of Starlink terminals in motion without prior notice, which he wrote affected the military service StarShield and Ukrainian drone forces. He argued that the terminals lost connection when exceeding 160 km/h and that later reports indicated a threshold of 100 km/h. He also pointed out that sources from the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense had confirmed signal interruptions. Montes de Oca claimed that the measure could facilitate a Russian offensive and harm both Ukrainian attacks against Russian logistics and the logistical coordination and advance of Ukrainian units. He described it as help to Putin and stated that it came at the worst time for the performance of the Russian army. The author cited Ukrainian presidential advisor Serhii Beskrestnov, who confirmed that "several missions were interrupted" due to the lack of guarantees. He also noted that former Defense Ministry advisor Serhii Sternenko had suggested that the measure was in response to a request from the Donald Trump administration. Montes de Oca linked that possibility to pressures from Washington for Kiev to stop attacks on Russian refineries and to a message from Musk in which, according to the author, he said he would join the White House plan. #Starlink #Ucrania #Putin (translated)
