Elon Musk details Israel’s preparations for an operation against Gaza

Israel began negotiations with SpaceX, a company owned by American billionaire Elon Musk, for the use of the Starlink satellite Internet system.

The Israeli Ministry of Telecommunications reported that they are in talks with the company SpaceX for the use of the Starlink satellite Internet system. In the statement that the talks began, it was stated that this step will provide uninterrupted Internet service to the cities and war zones around the Gaza border.

The statement also states that Israel will apply for Starlink for the first time, which will serve as a backup in case other systems fail.

According to Bloomberg, the company has not yet accepted Israel’s request and has not commented on the ministry’s statement.

As the Israeli army concentrated heavily on the Gaza border, comments appeared in both the local and international press stating that the possible ground operation had “come to an end.” Israel is concerned about developments that could affect Internet services in such a situation. (AA)
