In many parts of the front, assault operations were halted.

The AFU General Staff has confirmed that the Russian army has serious problems with satellite communications at the front after mass blocking of Starlink terminals.

Interlocutors in the AFU General Staff told "Ukrinform".

The AFU command confirmed that the occupants' Starlink terminals stopped working at the front. This happened after the introduction of rules for the registration of such terminals in Ukraine.

The Russians have serious problems -- it is difficult to control the troops.

It should be noted that on February 5, Sergei (Flesh) Beskrestnov, advisor to the defense minister and consultant in the field of military radio technologies, wrote that "the enemy at the fronts does not even have a problem, the enemy has a catastrophe."

According to the specialist, because of the Starlink blockage, the occupants have "all the control of the troops laid down", and in many areas the assault actions were stopped.

"On our troops found out that there were problems in those who did not promptly submitted lists for private Starlinks." The processing is ongoing," the adviser to the head of the Defense Ministry added.
