Russian use of Starlink satellites requires SpaceX intervention, expert says

According to Flash, the Russians can import Molniya strike drones to the rear in two ways.

Russian occupiers continue to attack our facilities with drones controlled via Starlink satellites . Electronic warfare and communications systems expert Sergei “Flash” Beskrestnov wrote about this on his Telegram channel , posting a video of an enemy drone attack in the Poltava region.

He noted that the enemy does not control drones via mobile communications.

“And while Nikolaev’s attacks can be explained by their flight range, the attack on the Poltava region is a mystery,” Flash noted.

Beskrestnov said he is currently considering two options that could explain this: the launch of the Molniyas by sabotage and reconnaissance groups, or their launch from another drone that delivered them to the rear.

“The Starlink issue is complex. It can’t be suppressed with electronic warfare. A global solution requires the active assistance of SpaceX, and not at the level of the Ministry of Defense or the Ukrainian Armed Forces,” Flash emphasized.
