The pursuit of modern warfare often is highly dependent on tech, including access to the internet, and now, according to an announcement by Israel, Hamas’ access to the web in its Gaza territory is about to be seriously limited.
A report from NBC News explains how Shlomo Karhi, the minister of communications for Elon Musk’s satellite-based portal, Starlink, said the services will now be “formally” limited.
NBC explained, “Palestinians in Gaza have experienced severe telecommunications blackouts since the war began, with the area’s largest internet provider citing Israel’s bombing campaigns and fuel and electricity embargoes as the reasons. All broadband internet and phone calls in Gaza are routed through Israeli infrastructure.”
And now Starlink is going to have the brakes put on, the report said.
Musk had warned at the time of the Hamas terror inflicted on Israeli civilians that Starlink “will support connectivity to internationally recognized aid organizations in Gaza.”
But Khari, whose office approves internet licensing in Israel, said Israel would need to use all means possible to stop Hamas’ internet access.
The announcement came just as One America News was reporting Musk had visited Israel to view the aftermath of the Hamas terror.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined the Tesla CEO for a visit to Kibbutz Kfar Gaza, on the border with Gaza, where Hamas terrorists attacked, killed and destroyed on that Oct. 7. warfare.
The report explained, “Musk, wearing a bulletproof vest, joined Netanyahu and other officials for a walk-through of the battered community where 1,200 Israelis were killed in a single day by the Islamic terrorist organization Hamas.”
Musk also met with families of victims.
