简讯发布于：太平洋夏令时间 2026 年 10 月 24 日下午 1:46 图片来源：Jagmeet Singh / TechCrunch Anthony Ha Starlink 在乌克兰似乎已恢复正常运行。SpaceX 似乎已经解除了乌克兰军方对 Starshield（该公司 Starlink 互联网系统的军用版本）的使用限制。
The Wall Street Journal reports that Defense Minister Evgeniy Khmara told reporters that Starshield appears to be working normally again, although the military is still conducting tests and has not received an explanation for the restrictions.
《华尔街日报》报道称，国防部长叶夫根尼·赫马拉（Evgeniy Khmara）告诉记者，Starshield 似乎已恢复正常工作，尽管军方仍在进行测试，且尚未收到关于此前限制措施的解释。
This follows a 10-day period where Ukrainian drones would lose internet connectivity when flying at speeds of around 100 miles per hour, resulting in the military losing control of some drones, while others became more vulnerable because they were flying more slowly.
在此之前，乌克兰无人机在以每小时约 100 英里的速度飞行时会失去互联网连接，这种情况持续了 10 天，导致军方失去了对部分无人机的控制，而其他无人机则因飞行速度变慢而变得更加脆弱。
President Donald Trump reportedly called SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on Wednesday and asked him to restore Starshield service. Both Trump and Musk have criticized Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, with Musk recently posting, “Zelensky has gone too far.”
据报道，唐纳德·特朗普总统周三致电 SpaceX 首席执行官埃隆·马斯克，要求他恢复 Starshield 服务。特朗普和马斯克都曾批评过乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基，马斯克最近发帖称：“泽连斯基做得太过分了。”
The WSJ previously reported that Musk ordered SpaceX to throttle Ukraine’s Starlink access, though some sources claimed he’d discussed it with the Trump administration first. Musk claimed in a post on X that Ukraine had “violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people.”
《华尔街日报》此前曾报道称，马斯克下令 SpaceX 限制乌克兰对 Starlink 的访问，尽管一些消息来源称他曾先与特朗普政府讨论过此事。马斯克在 X 上发帖称，乌克兰“违反了 Starlink 的服务条款，并将其用于杀人的进攻性无人机袭击”。
“Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately,” Musk said. “This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact.”
“如果关闭 Starlink，乌克兰前线将立即崩溃，”马斯克说。“这不是威胁，这只是陈述事实。”
