Musk says that he never had turned Starlink on in Crimea, but had denied Ukraine's request to turn it on. But that doesn't add up. Why would Ukraine go through with the attack if the request was denied, as the Musk says it was? It is just more plausible that Musk cut off service, causing the marine drones to flounder and wash up onshore in Crimea.
