American billionaire and founder of Tesla and SpaseX Elon Musk published a series of new tweets related to Starlink, continuing to "warm up" this topic in the media space. In particular, he stated that Russia is doing everything to leave the Ukrainian army without satellite communication.
"Big difference between world communication and front line communication. Starlink is the only communication system still working on the front line - the rest are dead. Russia is actively trying to kill Starlink. To protect SpaceX, they have put huge resources into defense. Even in this case Starlink can still die," Musk wrote.
Big difference between peace comms vs warfront comms.

Starlink is the only comms system still working at warfront – others all dead.
Russia is actively trying to kill Starlink. To safeguard, SpaceX has diverted massive resources towards defense.
Even so, Starlink may still die.
According to him, Starlink is the leading communication system for the Ukrainian army at the front.
"If anyone else wants to do the job, welcome," he added in another tweet.
Starlink is the primary communications system of the Ukrainian army on the war front. If anyone else wants this job, please be my guest...

In addition to Starlink, Musk reflected on the fact that Russia can destroy the USA and Europe with nuclear missiles in less than half an hour, and vice versa.
"Russia has the ability to completely destroy the United States and Europe with nuclear missiles in less than 30 minutes, and vice versa. A surprising number of people do not know this," the message says.
Musk added that it would be "crazy" not just to use nuclear weapons, but to be in such a situation in general.
Russia has the ability to destroy the USA & Europe utterly with nuclear missiles in less than 30 minutes & vice versa.

A surprising number of people don't know this.
Of course, it would be MAD to use them, but it is also MAD to be in this situation at all.
