Mixed60% confidence6 sourcesOct 28, 2026Russia provides Iran with missiles and anti-jamming electronics for Iranian drones used to kill Americans.Multiple sources, including a Reuters-reported Zelenskiy claim and Western-official-sourced reporting (TechTimes, The Week/Economist), support Russian supply of anti-jamming navigation (Kometa-M) and related help to Iranian drones, but none of the provided sources directly confirm that Russian-supplied missiles were used to kill Americans, and the 'missiles' element is supported only by a Reuters report of Shahed drones and the ISW/Military Times reporting of munitions, with the claim's 'all used to kill Americans' link resting mainly on Zelenskiy and anonymous officials. The claim is extracted from the speaker's passage and matches it in substance; as of 2026-10-28 the sources describe these supplies as ongoing, with several attributed to unnamed officials or unconfirmed assessments.Mixed60% confidence8 sourcesOct 28, 2026SpaceX limited its military-grade version of Starlink satellite services to Ukrainians on the battlefield.SpaceX did restrict Ukraine's Starlink service for battlefield use: Musk himself said SpaceX throttled it, and the restriction was lifted by Oct 24, before the claim date. But the claim's 'military-grade version' element is disputed: Musk denied responsibility for the Starshield (military) issue, which Ukraine and Blumenthal's inquiry tie to the degradation, so the sources do not settle whether SpaceX limited the military-grade service itself.
