Democratic US senators order Musk to preserve records on Ukraine Starlink access
The senators want internal communications and technical records to determine who approved the Ukraine service restrictions, which they say could affect front-line defenses.
- On Friday, Democratic senators demanded that SpaceX Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk preserve all records regarding restrictions on Ukraine's use of Starlink and Starshield satellite services, The Wall Street Journal reported.
- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy reported renewed disruptions to Starshield communications on Thursday, following earlier outages that limited the military's operating speed to 161 kilometers per hour and hindered efforts to intercept Russian drones.
- Senators Jeanne Shaheen and Chris Coons wrote that "the October and November restrictions now raise the disturbing possibility that these vulnerabilities persist even within systems on which the U.S. government relies," criticizing the company's "opaque decision-making."
- Lawmakers gave Musk until November 30 to confirm that "all appropriate preservation measures have been implemented," seeking communications between SpaceX, the White House, and the Pentagon since September 1.
