Ukraine war briefing: Starlink access restored, says UK’s Streeting, as Zelenskyy rallies support in Brussels

Ukraine's access to Elon Musk's Starlink satellite communications system has been restored, according to UK defence secretary Wes Streeting. This means Ukraine can now use its attack and air-defence drone missions without interruption, which is crucial for its military efforts. The restoration of Starlink access is significant because it reduces the impact of the conflict on Ukraine's military operations, and also eases tensions between Ukraine and its allies, particularly the US.

Why it matters

Restored satellite communications can help Ukraine's military, says UK defence secretary. This can improve their coordination and response to Russian attacks.
