Tesla's CEO was challenged on Twitter by Ukraine's Vice Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov.

"@elonmusk, while you try to colonize Mars - Russia try to occupy Ukraine! While your rockets successfully land from space - Russian rockets attack Ukrainian civil people! We ask you to provide Ukraine with Starlink stations and to address sane Russians to stand," Fedorov wrote on his Twitter account.

excerpt-

Several hours after the post, Musk replied directly to Fedorov,...

"Starlink service is now active in Ukraine. More terminals en route," Musk replied.

excerpt-

...by allowing Ukrainians access to Starlink, one of the fastest, most robust satellite internet systems, Musk and his company SpaceX make it impossible for Russia to disable the Ukrainian internet access fully without cyber attacking foreign data centers.
