Israel will have to control Starlink if it’s over Gaza, officials tell Elon Musk
Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite internet service will only be able to operate in the Gaza Strip with the approval of Israel, according to an agreement reportedly reached between Musk and Israeli officials Monday.
Shlomo Karhi, the Israeli minister of communications, said Monday he and Musk came to an agreement over the use of Starlink satellite units in Israel, which the tech billionaire is visiting days after his reply to a conspiracy theory on social media led to him facing renewed accusations of antisemitism. Musk has not publicly confirmed an agreement between Israel and Starlink, which is operated by his company, SpaceX.
“As a result of this significant agreement, Starlink satellite units can only be operated in Israel with the approval of the Israeli Ministry of Communications, including the Gaza Strip,” Karhi wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
