“Not a single Starlink was sold to Russia.” Elon Musk denied the information that SpaceX is selling Starlink terminals to Russia, which are used by the military in Ukraine

Musk has denied that SpaceX is selling Starlink terminals to Russia

Elon Musk denied the information that appeared that his company SpaceX is selling Starlink terminals to Russia.

“A number of false news reports claim that SpaceX is selling Starlink terminals to Russia. This is categorically false. To our knowledge, no Starlinks have been sold directly or indirectly to Russia,” Musk wrote.

Earlier, a number of Ukrainian media outlets and the military reported that the Russian Federation had many Starlink terminals on the front line.

But, apparently, Russians do not really buy them directly, but through neutral countries, where accounts are registered to citizens of these countries.

At the same time, Musk’s company cannot yet turn them off, since then the Ukrainian terminals on the front line would also stop working.


Earlier, the Ukrainian military reported that they had detected Starlink terminals in the possession of Russians.

They published photographs taken by a drone allegedly of one of the Starlink systems used by the Russian military in the occupied territories..

It was reported that the first detections of Russian use of satellite devices on the front line were noticed several months ago.
