OREANDA-NEWS  The Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) are faced with a slowdown in the Starshield military satellite communications system, which is a variant of the Starlink communication system of American billionaire Elon Musk. This statement was made by the President of Ukraine, Vladimir Zelensky, in his Telegram channel.

"The Ukrainian military has already checked the circumstances of this, and these are not accidental errors, but a systemic speed limit," the politician said.

According to Zelensky, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been fixing a data transmission speed limit of 161 kilometers per hour for several days. According to him, the restriction applies along the entire front line, as well as in the territories of Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, Kherson and Zaporizhia regions controlled by the Russian Armed Forces (AF).

The politician complained that communication restrictions prevent the Armed Forces of Ukraine from detecting jet drones of the Russian Armed Forces. He also promised to clarify the reasons for the decision from the American side.
