Back online! Starlink and Starshield now work reliably at speeds exceeding 400 km/h "The connection is stable," said Ukraine's Defense Minister Yevhen Khmara. The Defense Ministry is continuing to monitor and test the systems to determine the maximum speed at which they can operate.
⚡️ BREAKING: Starlink is working again in Ukraine at speeds above 161 km/h RBC-Ukraine reports this, citing sources in the Ministry of Defense. Notably, just nine hours ago, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in an interview with ABC News that the restrictions were still in place. "The sense of this work is to have unlimited speed. Yes, but it's limited. It's still limited. We check each night, each night and morning," the Ukrainian president explained.

🚨 Russia currently controls 19.3% of Ukraine's territory — Zelenskyy "When somebody speaks about 25%, it means that we have to [withdraw] by ourselves from all the Donbas, and it will mean, yes, they will control 25%," the Ukrainian president said in an interview. As for freezing the front line, Kyiv is ready to end the war as quickly as possible and is indeed open to a ceasefire along the current line of contact. However, Ukraine will never agree to recognize the temporarily occupied territories as Russian, Zelenskyy stressed.
