This is a critical distinction and given how Starlink terminals have been used it is clear that Ukraine has been using Starshield for their drone use, not Starlink. Musk would have known this, he's thus clearly lying.
Replying to @sternenko
Drones fly at speeds of 120 kilometers per hour or more. Starlink stopped working in Ukraine at speeds of 60–70 km/h. Anything moving faster than that requires Starshield. All UAVs require it.

I'm a domestic abuse survivor. This is so inspiring to me. Amy Acton is a person who has chosen to carry her pain into action. I can tell she doesn't just want to help people, she wants to fight for them. I hope she becomes the next governor of Ohio.
Wow! Make Amy Acton governor. “I am making a promise to Ohioans...that no one in my state will ever, ever be invisible to me."

"I miss them constantly. And it feels like that even when they're right next to me." Asked what his wife would say about how he has changed, President Zelenskyy says: "She'd definitely say I've changed a lot." He adds: "In a war you fight and you're lonely." He describes "this habit of doing work and focusing exclusively on work," and says: "I chose my own path. And of course, I didn't choose the war, but I chose this path." @ZelenskyyUa

It doesn't need to be over complicated.
What's actually going on in Ukraine is that russians invaded, occupied us and are mass terrorizing and slaughtering our people so we capitulate and they can eradicate our nation and independence. And we are fighting for our survival. Thank you for the attention on this matter.

This is such a sad damning judgement of the Russians and their brutality. Russia truly are the fascists of today, this is why we should have always been careful using the 'f' word in the past, its overuse has deafened so many. "He also recalls an elderly man in Bucha who had survived the town's occupation during World War II: 'He said the fascists never treated people like that.'"
"I had never wanted to kill a single human being. I had never felt anything like that. Pure revenge." Asked about his hardest day of the last four years, President Zelenskyy says it was Bucha. He says he had never seen people's bodies scattered on the street in his entire life, and that after that, everything changed completely. He also recalls an elderly man in Bucha who had survived the town's occupation during World War II: "He said the fascists never treated people like that." @ZelenskyyUa

Destiny, through his canvassing efforts with @DigitalGroundG and the Destiny community knocking on 17k doors in Michigan, has done more to get @AbdulElSayed elected than Hasan Piker who had to be called by Abdul himself who told Piker to stfu because he was "costing him votes".

Fucker gave up, huh? 😐
The strategy of blaming Ukraine isn't working (because its bullshit), so he switched to blaming Iran.

I can't recommend this interview enough. Highlighting the viscous crimes of Russia has never been more important given the utter mistreatment of Ukraine and Zelenskyy by Trump. Not only Ukraine but the European community as a whole is lucky to have Zelenskyy as a leader. Certainly one of @StevenBartlett's most impactful interviews.
What do you say to your family when you don’t know if you’ll ever see them again? In February 2022, he told his wife and children the war had begun. Then he left as Russian forces advanced towards Kyiv, unsure what the coming hours would bring. This is President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Before politics, he built a successful career in Ukrainian television as a writer, producer and performer, even portraying a president on screen. In 2019, he was elected President of Ukraine. Three years later, Russia launched its full-scale invasion. Sitting down with him was surreal and an enormous responsibility. It was a rare chance to hear his account of the first hours of the war and the decisions that followed. We discussed things like: How he found out Russia had invaded. Why he refused an offer to evacuate Kyiv. The 64km Russian military convoy advancing towards the capital. How Russian forces tried to capture a key airport. His account of discovering hundreds of bodies after Russian occupation. What he believes it will take to end the war. But I also wanted to understand how he’d been coping. One of my first questions was simply, “How are you doing?” His answer was: “It’s hard.” He spoke about meeting parents whose children had been killed. Some, he explained, simply ask him for a hug. And as he spoke, there were tears in his eyes. Whatever your views on the war or the decisions made by those involved, this is a rare opportunity to hear his account of events that have changed millions of lives. Because behind every map, every headline and every political decision, there are real people. Out now on all platforms ❤️👊🏾 (President Zelenskyy was recorded in Ukrainian and dubbed in English.)

This is directly related to the behaviour of the US/Trump. It allows other bad actors to excuse their actions.
Let’s kick out Slovakia from EU or at least isolate them, bring back the borders with them, suspend any money from EU and stuff 🇪🇺🛑🇸🇰

I got to work with Dylan on this project throughout 2025 and 2026. We got to document how this war has changed and the role that infantry forces now play—along with the drastically increased threat that drones play. Coming out this Sunday! To be serious for a minute, it’s a big point of pride to have been able to contribute to this and help @DylanBurns1776 do the job that journalists are meant to. Document history.
"One Year on the Kostiantynivka Frontline" releases this Sunday on my Youtube channel. An hour and a half long film on what its like at the tip of the spear of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
