Elon Musk last week ordered a slowdown of the military-grade Starlink satellite service that Ukraine depends on, The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday. The report cited U.S. officials and people familiar with the matter.
Musk, his company SpaceX, and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Reuters could not immediately verify the report.
Ukraine uses Starlink for battlefield communications and drone operations. Limiting the service hampered the country's military activities, according to the report.
