Ukraine Resumes Strikes on Russian Oil Refineries as Starlink Returns to Battlefield

Ukraine has resumed strikes on Russian oil refineries after abandoning an energy ceasefire it says Russia repeatedly violated. The attacks have become a source of tension with US President Donald Trump, who argues they are driving up diesel prices. The rift has raised questions over who was behind a temporary disruption to Starshield, Ukraine's military Starlink system, which is used in Kyiv's defense and battlefield operations. The return of Starlink comes as Ukraine continues to rely heavily on the satellite internet service for military communications and drone operations. The disruption had sparked concerns about the reliability of the system amid ongoing tensions with Russia. The situation highlights the complex interplay between military strategy, international politics, and energy markets. As Ukraine presses its counteroffensive, the support of Western allies remains crucial, but disagreements over tactics and economic impact could complicate future cooperation.
