Ukraine said Saturday that high-speed service has been restored for SpaceX's Starlink and Starshield satellite communication systems, a day after declaring that they remained throttled. Ukrainian official said the service disruption left the country vulnerable to Russian attacks.
"The monitoring systems of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine officially record the restoration of the speed of Starlink/Starshield," it said in a statement. "The connection remains stable [while equipment is moving] at speeds over 400 km/h (249 miles per hour)."
"Previously, monitoring systems recorded limitations in the operation of Starlink/Starshield. Now the speed indicators have been restored," the ministry added.
Starlink is SpaceX's broader commercial satellite internet network, while Starshield is the company's government operations built on Starlink technology.
SpaceX did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment.
