DM Fedorov: After Starlink shutdown, Russian army nearly cut off from communications, streams drop elevenfold
27.02.2026 12:59
The Ministry of Defense quickly responded to the problem of Russian drones using Starlink and, after reaching an agreement with Elon Musk and SpaceX, effectively cut off Russian troops' communications. In particular, the number of streams used by the Russians decreased 11-fold.
According to a Ukrinform correspondent, Ukrainian Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov announced this during a conversation with the media.
“We have effectively cut off Russia's communications. The number of Russian streams has decreased 11-fold, and radio interception has increased significantly,” Fedorov said, adding that this was important both for protecting the civilian population and for strengthening the capabilities of the Armed Forces.
He said that the Ministry of Defense had developed a plan to register Starlink in Ukraine and build an anti-fraud system, and had held many discussions with SpaceX.
“This issue is not only about a technological response to Russia, but also about the aggressor's unfair use of Western technologies against civilians,” Fedorov emphasized.
During a meeting with the media, the minister also reported that the mesh network used by the “Shaheds” in the north had already been eliminated, which had a positive impact on the defense capabilities of Kyiv and central Ukraine.
As reported by Ukrinform, Russian troops in the Dnipro region are trying to gain access to the internet due to the lack of Starlink satellite communications by confiscating or buying SIM cards from Ukrainian mobile operators.

Ukraine downs Zircon and Kh-101 missiles in mass Russian attack
February 26, 2026, 04:05 AM
Ukraine’s air defenses intercepted or suppressed 32 of 39 missiles during a massive Russian overnight attack on Feb. 26, according to Ukraine’s Air Force.
Air defense units destroyed all Zircon anti-ship missiles launched in the assault, all Kh-101 cruise missiles, and all Kh-69 guided air-launched cruise missiles, the Air Force said.
Specifically, Ukrainian forces neutralized:
— both Zircon missiles out of two launched;
— all 24 Kh-101 cruise missiles;
— both Kh-69 guided air-launched cruise missiles;
— four Iskander-M/S-400 ballistic missiles out of 11 fired.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said most of the missiles were intercepted thanks in part to additional air defense ammunition provided by partners following agreements reached at the latest Ramstein-format meeting.
“Unfortunately, there were also hits. This means we must continue working even more actively,” Zelenskyy said. “The cold has not fully retreated, and air defense missiles are needed every day while Russia continues trying to destroy our energy system.”
Defense Ministry adviser and volunteer Serhii Sternenko noted that the interception rate during recent Russian air attacks has significantly increased, as has the number of downed drones.
“This is only the beginning of systemic changes aimed at improving the effective use of available resources being implemented by the Defense Ministry,” he said.
Russia also launched 420 drones overnight. Ukrainian air defenses neutralized 374 of them.
