White House ordered restrictions on Starlink use in Ukraine

Original: Reuters: White House ordered restrictions on Starlink Ukraine

According to Reuters, the order to limit Starlink (and the related Starshield military variant) services for Ukraine came from inside the White House, citing sources familiar with the matter. The report raises questions about US control over the satellite network and its impact on Ukraine's battlefield communications.

Why now: The Reuters report directly implicates the White House in restricting a critical military communications tool for Ukraine, touching on sensitive wartime policy.
