Kyivstar, Vodafone, and Lifecell prepare new rules: what will happen to communication during alarms.

The mobile operator Kyivstar successfully tested the capabilities of Starlink satellite communication. The testing took place in a partner laboratory in the USA, where the Kyivstar SIM card was able to synchronize with the Starlink network and successfully processed signals.

Direct to Cell: mobile communication from satellites

The Direct to Cell technology will enable mobile communication directly from satellites to ordinary smartphones. This will be especially useful in emergency situations or in areas with poor standard coverage.

Discussion on the use of SIM cards in 'mines'

The committee of the Verkhovna Rada on national security, defense, and intelligence discussed the possible use of Ukrainian operators' SIM cards in Russian 'mines'. Issues of subscriber identification, communication control, and countering Russian drones were considered.

The successful testing of satellite communication by Kyivstar and the discussion on the use of SIM cards in 'mines' indicate continuous development and the search for new opportunities in the field of communication and technology.
