MOSCOW, May 26. The Ukrainian Armed Forces will face serious problems due to the jamming of the Starlink system by Russian electronic warfare, British analyst Alexander Mercouris said on the YouTube channel.
«Of course, the United States will try to find ways to bypass the jamming, but if the Russians remain ahead, what can they do? Considering that they are recognized masters in such things, then this is a disaster for Ukraine. Communications, military communications are very dependent on the Starlink system,” he noted.
According to the expert,Russian troops have begun jamming the Starlink system, and they are doing it in an increasingly sophisticated way. He noted that they managed to interfere with its work during the offensive in the Kharkov direction.
«Now they are gradually expanding the scope of their Starlink jamming, interfering with Ukrainian communications in more and more places «, summarized Mercouris.
The day before, American entrepreneur Elon Musk said on social network X that his company SpaceX was spending significant resources to fight Russia's attempts to jam Starlink satellite communications in Ukraine, and admitted that this was a serious problem.
The New York Times reported Friday that Russian forces are increasingly disrupting Starlink devices in Ukraine, a move that could force a tactical shift in the conflict.
