105 US lawmakers demand restoration of Ukraine's Starshield access

A bipartisan group of 105 US House members has formally demanded that the Trump administration and SpaceX restore full Starshield access for Ukraine's military, signaling congressional pressure on a policy that appears to have restricted or suspended Ukrainian use of the satellite system. The demand suggests a potential rift between Congress and the executive on Ukraine support, with implications for battlefield communications and US-Ukraine relations. The outcome remains uncertain as the administration and SpaceX have not yet responded.

Ukraine Starshield/Starlink Service Degradation and US Policy Rift

Ukraine is experiencing renewed and persistent disruptions to Starshield/Starlink satellite communications, with President Zelenskyy publicly attributing some limitations to US-imposed speed restrictions over occupied territories and the front line. While the cause of all disruptions remains unconfirmed (potential Russian EW/jamming or system faults), Zelenskyy's statements indicate a significant operational constraint on Ukrainian drone intercepts and deep-strike capabilities, suggesting a policy rift with the US regarding the use of Starshield in contested areas.
