  "account": "US President Donald Trump said that Elon Musk, founder of SpaceX, has restored the satellite internet service Starlink for Ukraine. Trump did not confirm a report that he had called Musk to request this, saying that who made the call was not important. The Wall Street Journal had reported that Trump had asked Musk to reverse the slowdown of Starlink, which is crucial for Ukrainian forces. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had complained that problems with Starlink were hindering Ukrainian drones.",
  "summary": "The Ukrainian military is complaining about a throttling of Elon Musk's satellite internet. Now the US President is taking a position on this - but many questions remain unanswered.",
