According to SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, Ukraine violated Starlink's rules. He said it used the civilian satellite internet network for an offensive drone strike. Ukrainian officials dispute the statement. Clayton Swope, deputy director of the Aerospace Security Project at CSIS, joins CBS News to discuss.

Mayor Ihor Terekhov said there were three strikes from Russia on the city district.

Europe’s five biggest defense powers vowed to stand behind Ukraine in its fight against Russia, even as the US offers Moscow a financial lifeline and presses Kyiv to make a deal.

Elon Musk acknowledged over the weekend that SpaceX deliberately slowed Ukraine's access to Starlink satellite internet, saying the company acted because Ukrainian forces had used the civilian service to guide offensive drone strikes against Russia.

Ukraine has been waiting “for nearly a month” for U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to allow missiles for its air defense systems to be sent to the country, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Monday. “We have been waiting for nearly a month for Mr. Hegseth to sign off on missiles for Patriots and NASAMS,” Zelensky...

Ukraine has been waiting for almost a month ‌for the U.S. war secretary to sign off on critical missile supplies, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Monday, as Russia stepped up attacks on energy and civilian infrastructure.

Russia's FSB security service has thwarted a planned Ukrainian drone attack from inside Russia on a key element of Moscow's air defense system and on an electricity facility, the FSB said on Monday, saying it had arrested two men involved in the plot.

Much has been said about how Ukraine should treat Russian prisoners of war. Less attention has been paid to the emotional struggle for the Ukrainians tasked with that work.

A Republican lawmaker questioned Elon Musk’s argument for throttling Ukraine’s access to SpaceX’s Starlink satellite terminals, arguing that Ukrainian forces use the system defensively in the war with Russia.

"Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be," Musk tweeted Saturday.

‘That loophole was closed last week’

Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov, an adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin and former ambassador to the U.S., said on Sunday that upcoming talks between the U.S., Ukraine and Russia should include more of Europe.

Crimea strikes cause water and power cuts; war game designed to show how Nato countries could be defended amid fears of Russian aggression. What we know on day 1,705 A Ukrainian attack led to water and power cuts in occupied Crimea on Saturday, as a barrage of drones in several regions inside Russia left several dead, according to Russian authorities. Sergei Aksyonov, the Moscow-installed head of the Crimean peninsula, wrote on Telegram that due to the drone attack on local power grids “restrictions on the supply of electricity and water have been put in place”. He did not specify how many households had been affected in Crimea, which is home to more than 2.5 million people. The peninsula, which was seized from Ukraine by Russia in 2014, is a regular target for Ukrainian attacks. A separate Ukrainian strike in part of the north-eastern Kharkiv region held by Russia killed at least three people and gravely wounded another on Saturday, the Moscow-backed authorities said. Drones also rained down inside Russia . The country’s defence ministry said 616 of them had been shot down overnight across more than 20 regions of the country. During the day, drones hit Russia’s south-western Bryansk border region, killing at least three people, regional acting governor Yegor Kovalchuc said on Telegram. In Ukraine, authorities said that at least five people died in several Russian drone and missile strikes in the country’s east. Dnipropetrovsk regional governor Oleksandr Ganzha on Saturday evening said three people were killed and at least 12 wounded when a Russian drone strike hit the town of Synelnykove, setting the fourth floor of a high-rise building on fire. Authorities in Sumy meanwhile said a Russian drone hit a farm, killing a 31-year-old woman and injuring four others. Thousands of British and French troops have taken part in a military training exercise that included one of Britain’s largest airborne operations in two decades, the UK government said on Sunday. The war game is designed to show how Nato countries could be defended against a modern-day attack and comes during fears about Russian aggression in Europe amid Moscow’s war against Ukraine. About 2,500 troops were involved in the seven-week exercise, in which 600 British and French paratroopers dropped from four RAF A400M Atlas transport aircraft over Germany. The exercise called Rhino Titan, held at the Sennelager military training centre in Germany, has been testing British troops’ ability against an enemy equipped with drones and electronic warfare. “The threats we face in the 21st century require an updated, modern approach to warfare – and our adaptable armed forces are preparing accordingly,” British defence minister Wes Streeting said in a statement. Ukraine’s military has a “stable connection to Starlink” , the Ukrainian government said , 10 days after its ability to use the satellite communications system was suddenly restricted . But hours after the announcement, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, whose company owns Starlink, accused the Ukrainian military of violating ⁠the company’s terms. Neither Musk nor the US government, which operates Starshield using Starlink technology, took responsibility for imposing the curbs. Bulgarians will vote ​in presidential elections on Sunday as Russia’s war in Ukraine spreads to the waters off Bulgaria’s Black Sea coast.

The restoration follows a new U.S. diplomatic push to end the war.

Ukraine's access to Starlink and Starshield satellite links has been restored to the speeds it had before restrictions that disrupted front-line operations for more than a week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Saturday.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy offers thanks to US allies for restoring system key to air defence and ‘frontline logistics’ Ukraine’s military has a “stable connection to Starlink”, the Ukrainian government has said, 10 days after its ability to use the satellite communications system was suddenly restricted . The Starlink satellite terminals, which are produced by Elon Musk’s SpaceX but managed by the US government, are a key component of Ukraine’s military operations. Sudden speed restrictions on the terminals, which capped operations at speeds of 160km/h (99mph), led to the failure of several Ukrainian combat missions earlier this month. Continue reading...
