A military analyst claims that restrictions on Starlink operations in Ukraine pose a significant threat to the Ukrainian army. According to retired Russian Army Colonel Viktor Litovkin, speaking to Sputnik, Ukraine has become heavily reliant on Starlink. He asserts that the service isn’t merely a useful tool, but forms the core of the Ukrainian army’s command and control infrastructure. Litovkin suggests that any curtailment of Starlink’s functionality in Ukraine is therefore a serious issue. He emphasized the extent of Ukraine’s reliance, characterizing it as foundational to their military operations. The analyst’s comments followed reports of Starlink limiting its services within Ukraine. This raises concerns about the potential impact on Ukraine’s military capabilities.
