Elon Musk offered Starlink satellite internet to internationally recognized aid organizations in Gaza on Saturday.
Elon Musk offered to provide Starlink internet coverage in Gaza early Saturday, writing that the company will “support connectivity to internationally recognized aid organizations” as telecommunications and internet continue to be cut to the region.
Musk announced the news in reply to a tweet by congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in which she decried Israel’s decision to cut off communications.
“Cutting off all communication to a population of 2.2 million is unacceptable. Jounalists, medical professionals, humanitarian efforts and innocents are all endangered, Ocasio-Cortez, who’s been vocally critical of Musk, wrote on X. “I do not know how such an act can be defended. The United States has historically denounced this practice.
