Zelensky Pushes Back on SpaceX's 'Technical Issue' Story for Starlink Outages
Ukraine's president says the Starlink disruptions hitting his country for five days are not a technical glitch, whatever SpaceX told Kyiv's Defense Ministry. Daily tests across multiple directions keep confirming it, he says. Interfax-Ukraine reported the comments on Saturday.

Volodymyr Zelensky told reporters Ukraine does not accept SpaceX's explanation for the recent Starlink disruptions, according to Interfax-Ukraine. The Ukrainian Defense Ministry spoke directly with the company, he said, and SpaceX replied that it is not restricting anything. The restrictions have been in place for five days now.
SpaceX has cast the problem as some sort of technical issue. Zelensky isn't buying it. 'It's not a question of whether we believe it or not. We just don't think so,' he said, adding that more checks may follow.
Ukraine isn't waiting on those checks. Zelensky said the country runs tests in various directions every day, and each day brings the same confirmation. That pattern, he argued, rules out one-off failures: 'That means these are not isolated cases, but mass occurrences.'
