Poland urges Musk to restrict Russian use of Starlink

Poland’s foreign minister, Radosław Sikorski, has called on Elon Musk to prevent Russia from using Starlink satellites, accusing Moscow of exploiting the system to carry out attacks in Ukraine.

In a post on social media, Sikorski shared a report by the US-based Institute for the Study of War, which said Russian forces have been using Starlink services on Ukrainian territory to conduct drone strikes.

“Dear Elon Musk, why are you not preventing Russians from using Starlink to attack Ukrainian cities?” Sikorski wrote. “Profiting from war crimes could damage your brand.”
