Ukraine confirms arrival of Starlink satellite internet hardware after plea to Elon Musk

Hardware from Elon Musk's satellite internet company Starlink has arrived in Ukraine following an online plea made directly to him.

Ukraine's vice prime minister and minister of digital transformation Mykhailo Fedorov shared an image of the Starlink hardware via Twitter Monday.

"Starlink — here. Thanks, @elonmusk," wrote Fedorov.

On Saturday, Musk said Starlink, which leverages satellites to beam broadband internet access, was active in the Ukraine and terminals were "en route."
