TL;DR Summary

Elon Musk denies selling Starlink to Russia after Ukraine claimed that Russian troops were using the internet service on the front lines of the war. Both Musk and the Kremlin have refuted the claims, with Musk stating that no Starlinks have been sold directly or indirectly to Russia, and the Kremlin asserting that Starlink is not certified for use in Russia. Ukraine's military intelligence agency GUR said intercepted conversations among Russian forces revealed the use of Starlink terminals, which they believe are entering Russia through parallel importing. Musk previously faced scrutiny for refusing a request by Ukraine to activate Starlink to assist in a surprise attack on Russia's fleet in Crimea's port of Sevastopol.
