Ukrinform was informed about this by the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.

Thanks to the initiative of the digital transformation ministers of the EU countries, it was noted that another 5 thousand devices were purchased, the rest of them from private companies.

Today, Starlink is critical infrastructure that impacts the lives of thousands of people. Terminals help power companies, firefighters, rescue teams and hospitals stay in touch.

The ministry added that in addition to satellite communications, Elon Musk is helping Ukraine with Tesla Powerwall systems. These are powerful batteries that keep you in touch in the hottest spots despite a power outage. So far, the founder of the Tesla company has transferred about 50 such systems to Ukraine for free.

As reported, Elon Musk’s SpaceX has launched 54 more mini-satellites into orbit to replenish the orbital group of the Starlink global internet coverage network.
