Musk says Starlink will help international organizations in Gaza

Elon Musk announced that the Starlink satellite communications system will “connect with internationally recognized humanitarian organizations in Gaza.”

According to Ukrinform, this situation is reported by the Times of Israel.

Musk made the announcement on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter, in response to U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s statement that the power outage in Gaza was “unacceptable.”

“Starlink will maintain contact with internationally recognized humanitarian organizations in Gaza. We will support the UN and other internationally recognized aid groups,” he wrote.

Aid organizations say they cannot contact their teams in the Gaza Strip after phone and internet connections were cut off due to intense Israeli bombardment.

As Ukrinform reports, the Internet disappeared in the Gaza Strip against the background of a powerful Israeli shelling.

Google disabled traffic information in its Maps and Waze apps at the request of the Israeli military on the eve of a possible ground attack on the Gaza Strip.

It is known that Starlink, operated by SpaceX, owned by Elon Musk, was deployed in Ukraine shortly after the Russian invasion in February 2022.
