Russia is intensifying efforts to disrupt Ukraine's use of Starlink satellite internet to coordinate drone attacks. According to Reuters, Russian forces are employing electronic warfare systems like Volna-Kupol-Garant to jam Starlink signals, aiming to prevent Ukrainian drones from communicating with their operators and striking strategic targets such as fuel depots and command centers. These systems emit radio-frequency interference to degrade or block the connection between Starlink terminals and satellites in low-Earth orbit. Ukrainian officials report that Russia has deployed these jammers near military sites, covering areas up to 20 square kilometers. The Volna-Kupol-Garant system, developed by a company in Russian-occupied Crimea, specifically targets satellite internet links, which have become crucial for Ukraine's battlefield operations. By disrupting this technology, Russia seeks to limit Ukraine's ability to conduct remote drone strikes effectively.
