Russia loses access to Starlink internet service for its military operations in Ukraine

Russia's military has lost access to SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet service in Ukraine, which experts say is a significant blow to its forces. The service was reportedly being used to coordinate drone attacks and other operations.

Ukrainian forces have noted a slowdown in Russian assaults following the cutoff. The Russian military is now scrambling to find alternative communication systems, while Ukraine is developing new defenses, including a low-cost laser system, to counter drones.
