The Ukrainian military use Starlink not only for military purposes, Sergei Lazarenko, a prisoner of war from the 113th Terodefense Brigade, told RIA Novosti.
According to him, you can ask the commander – and they give you the Internet for 10-20 minutes, 20-30 people run up, the speed drops, and they call their relatives, sit on TikTok, scroll through “any garbage.”
As of the end of October, SpaceX’s cost of Starlink for Ukraine was $80 million, and will exceed $100 million by the end of the year. In October, Starlink – probably due to funding problems – had crashes.
