First surface vessel attack on Crimea failed as Musk turned off connection � UP

Ukraine tried for the first time to use uncrewed surface vessels against Russian vessels in Sevastopol Bay in September 2022, but 70 kilometres from the target, the connection with billionaire Elon Musk�s Starlinks was lost. It was not possible to persuade Musk to turn back on the connection, so Ukraine modified the drones.

      Ah yes, let’s ask the most vain man on earth if he did a highly newsworthy thing. I hope he doesn’t lie about this like he does pretty much everything else.

        Eh… In this case that lie could (should) have put him in major trouble considering he got in the way of an attack by an ally of the country he resides in.

          Not helping your countries ally bomb someone is in no way illegal. In fact, it’s a lot more likely that the reverse will be true. Bombing people is bad, as it turns out.
