SpaceX restrictions on Starlink terminals could make it more difficult to counter jet-powered "Shaheds," Serhii Beskrestnov said.

Starlink, restrictions on whose operation have been recorded in Ukraine, is used in the most effective solution for protection against jet-powered "Shaheds." And "in fact, through their actions, our partners are depriving us of one of the few chances to defend ourselves" against such drones. Serhii "Flash" Beskrestnov, adviser to the President of Ukraine on the development of defense technology areas, stated this on Telegram on October 14, UNN writes.

Everyone is writing that the restrictions on "Starlink" have affected long-range missions and frontline logistics, but there is another major problem for us. "Starlink" is being used in the most effective solution currently available (interceptors) to protect our skies from jet-powered "Shaheds." In fact, through their actions, our partners are depriving us of one of the few chances to protect the country from jet-powered "Shaheds"
