Why Ukraine's Starlink Scare Matters | DW News

Описание: Ukraine say Starshield, the government/military version of Starlink used by Ukrainian forces experienced connectivity problems and a speed cap earlier this week, and disrupted several military drone missions. According to Ukrainian officials, Ukrainian Starshield terminals lost connectivity when moving faster than about 100 mph (160 km/h). But who's behind this and why does it happen now?

DW's David Levitz speaks with former US Air Force Major Glenn Ignazio and Russia/Ukraine expert Stephen J. Blank about the timing and the likely causes of this massive disruption.

Correction:
03:55 We mistakenly said Mykhailo Fedorov is Ukraine's deputy prime minister. Fedorov is the former deputy PM and former defense minister. We apologize for the error.
