Satellite internet functionality via Starshield — the military version of the SpaceX service — was being at least partially restored Thursday morning, according to a source in the Ukrainian Defense Ministry.
Ukraine has resumed strikes on Russian oil refineries after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy angrily accused the United States of betraying Kyiv with a “dangerous” withdrawal of support critical to its defense against Russia.
Ukraine held off on attacks for three days after Donald Trump’s unilateral “energy ceasefire” announcement, but accused Russia of repeatedly attacking its power grid. Zelenskyy voiced mounting frustration over the Kremlin’s failure to abide by the truce, and what he sees as U.S. attempts to pressure Kyiv after gaps in intelligence sharing on Russian attacks and restrictions on the Starlink internet service.
Satellite internet functionality via Starshield — the military version of the SpaceX service — was being at least partially restored Thursday, according to a source in the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the topic.
In an interview with the Financial Times, published Thursday, Zelenskyy indicated his patience had already been exhausted.
I am also surprised by that wording. I assume Zelenskyy sinply employs the same “technique” as Trump: just matter-of-factly state something to fit the narrative for your goals and blame everyone else for being incompetent dumbfucks or liars.
In the end it’s all a bit “he said she said” anyway.
Edit: hey hey, why the downvotes? Please elaborate. Last headline I read was that Zelenskyy didn’t know about any “deal”. Trump talked to Putin and then announced a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia.
Now Zelenskyy says Russia broke the cease fire. That sounds to me more like just spinning Trumps onesided narrative further to have a public reason for continuing hurting Russia (which is fine by me).
I was just trying to point out that the narrative is surprising/weird.
Lemmy has spoken!
I get what your saying, though, that hes just playing into the same contrived narrative. My reasoning would be that the world only reads headlines and nothing else, so he has no other option than to use the same headlines to defend himself. Of course this is just a gut feeling, I also have only read the headlines.
