Ukraine tried for the first time to use uncrewed surface vessels against Russian vessels in Sevastopol Bay in September 2022, but 70 kilometres from the target, the connection with billionaire Elon Musk�s Starlinks was lost. It was not possible to persuade Musk to turn back on the connection, so Ukraine modified the drones.

Details: The first attempt to attack Russian targets in Sevastopol took place on the night of 16-17 September 2022.
No I have heard all that before. I saw at least one news report that it was not known by the Ukrainian that starlink had geofences. They had not been informed/had a misunderstanding to the extent of their access to starlink. It was not a thing of Musk hearing about the attack and turning the system off, but one of that it was never on in that area and Musk refusing to change that in the moment.
Is any of this new information?
