AI brief
Ukraine's defense minister stated that the country now has a "stable connection" to Starlink, restoring full capability for drone piloting and military operations. Previously, connectivity was restricted, causing drones to lose connection at speeds of 161km/h (100mph) or more; now, speeds over 400km/h are possible. Ukraine extensively uses the network of 10,000 low Earth orbit satellites, utilizing both the civilian Starlink and the secure Starshield, while Russia is not authorized to use the service.
