Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, revealed that Starlink satellites, which offer internet connectivity, will be activated for well-known international organizations in Gaza.
This comes in response to the severe disruption of landline, mobile phone, and internet communication services in the region due to Israel's intense attacks on the blockaded Gaza Strip.
The Israeli army has announced an escalation in air strikes and plans to expand ground operations. Notably, even Shifa Hospital, the largest health facility in Gaza serving thousands of injured civilians, was pointed as a target by the Israeli military.
