"At the time of the January protests in Iran, the Iranian authorities were able successfully to jam the Starlink system. I said at the time that I believe that the Iranians had obtained the decology from the Russians and by the way that has been confirmed to me by numerous sources."
The analyst reports increasing evidence that Russian forces are successfully jamming Ukraine's Starlink communications on the front lines, a capability previously demonstrated by Iran during January protests. The technology was allegedly transferred from Russia to Iran, shocking American and Israeli officials who believed Starlink signals were jam-proof. While strategic drones targeting deep inside Russia remain unaffected, the jamming is becoming a growing operational problem for Ukrainian forces at the tactical level.
