The Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council announced the destruction of Starlink satellites.

On October 4, Dmitry Medvedev , Deputy Chairman of the Russian Federation Security Council , stated that blocking the network of Russian “Rassvet” satellites—which are analogous to Starlink—would mean its destruction. And this would allegedly have repercussions for the United States as well.

In particular, according to Medvedev, this would lead “to a full-scale space war.”

“I hope the Americans understand this. After all, their low-Earth-orbit Starlink satellites would then rain down like toys from a withered Christmas tree,” he emphasized.

In addition, Medvedev expressed the view that “space is a very small place” where “we need to be courteous to one another.”
