--

U.S. President Trump called Elon Musk on Wednesday, demanding the lifting of speed throttling restrictions on Ukraine's military Starlink service. Following the call, Starlink operations were restored on Thursday, but Ukrainian officials gave conflicting accounts of the extent of the restoration. U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut announced on Thursday that he would launch an investigation into Starlink's role in weakening Ukraine's communications capabilities and review the Pentagon's reliance on SpaceX's satellite communications services.
