A senior Ukrainian official has accused Elon Musk of “committing evil” after a
new biography revealed details about how the business magnate ordered his
Starlink satellite communications network to be turned off near the Crimean
coast last year to hobble a Ukrainian drone attack on Russian warships.
In a statement on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter,
which Musk owns, the Ukrainian presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak wrote
that Musk’s interference led to the deaths of civilians, calling them “the price of
a cocktail of ignorance and big ego”.
“By not allowing Ukrainian drones to destroy part of the Russian fleet via
Starlink interference, @elonmusk allowed this fleet to fire Kalibr missiles at
Ukrainian cities. As a result, civilians, and children are being killed,” Podolyak
wrote.
“Why do some people so desperately want to defend war criminals and their
desire to commit murder? And do they now realise that they are committing evil
and encouraging evil?”
