Pentagon IG refuses to investigate Starlink/Starshield slowdown in Ukraine

The Pentagon's inspector general has refused to investigate the recent slowdown of SpaceX's Starlink and Starshield satellite services in Ukraine, directing senators to ask the US Air Force and Space Force instead. The investigation was requested by five Democratic and four Republican senators due to reports that Ukraine's military drones lost satellite connectivity when traveling above 100 miles per hour. The Pentagon inspector general's office cited that the questions should be directed to the US Air Force and Space Force as they are 'better suited to address the matters raised'.
