Zelensky says Ukraine again received no Western warning before Russian strike

The absence of prior warning points to a widening gap between Western intelligence-sharing and what Kyiv actually receives in real time, a pattern Zelensky is now flagging publicly rather than privately. The Starlink and Starshield complaint is the more consequential thread: degraded satellite communications at the front affects command, drone operations and coordination, which matters well beyond any single strike. Whether the warning gap reflects capability limits or deliberate restraint, and whether connectivity problems persist or get resolved, are the open questions worth tracking.
