Russia has accused Ukraine of attacking an oil refinery on Thursday after President Volodymyr Zelensky said such strikes, halted at the request of the US, would resume.
Zelensky said he had restricted attacks for three days while Russia continued striking Ukraine's energy infrastructure. "We're done," he told the Financial Times.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said Kyiv had also tried to hit refineries on Wednesday - which Ukraine denied - but there had been no "significant damage".
Zelensky also accused the US of withdrawing intelligence-sharing to pressure Kyiv into ending attacks but Ukrainian defence sources later told the BBC some functionality on Starlink satellite services had resumed.
They said "operation while on the move", part of Starlink's military service Starshield, had been restored, although it remains unclear whether restrictions on the speed at which drones could fly while still maintaining Starlink internet connection have been fully lifted.
Officials were still working to clarify "the reasons and circumstances" behind the move, the sources added.
