The Pentagon's inspector general rejects the Senate investigation regarding Starlink restrictions in Ukraine According to the AP news agency, the inspector general of the US Department of Defense, in a letter dated October 27, did not accept the bipartisan request of 9 senators to examine the limitations of Star Shield (the military version of Starlink funded by the Pentagon) and considered the issue to be related to Air Force and Space Force contracts. Ukraine says the restrictions, which were imposed without warning around October 12-14, reduced the effectiveness of the drone interception against Russian witnesses, although the service was restored by October 24. However, Elon Musk initially said that the restrictions were set by the US government, but Trump denied this order in one of his interviews. The Wall Street Journal claims that Musk ordered the slowdown after consulting with government officials and said that SpaceX had closed the way for aggressive use.
