Elon Musk and SpaceX are lending support to Ukraine amid Russia’s assault on the embattled country.

“Significant internet disruption registered in Ukraine-controlled city of Kharkiv shortly after huge explosions heard,” they wrote on Twitter. “Users report loss of fixed-line service


on provider Triolan while cellphones continue to work.”
