Communications Minister Karai today (Wednesday) approved the satellite giant owned by Elon Musk to operate in Israel.
The meaning: local authorities, emergency departments, government bodies and more, will be able to continue to consume advanced communication services with broadband, even in case of wired and cellular communication failures.
In addition, the Minister of Communications and the representatives of the company reached agreements regarding the entry of Starlink into the Gaza Strip.
Today the security officials approved the introduction of one such unit to a field hospital of the United Arab Emirates in Rafah.
Starlink's high-speed, low-latency connections will allow conference calls with other hospitals and real-time remote diagnoses.

The Minister of Communications, Dr. Shlomo Karai: "In the whole country there will be a rebellion and in one end there will be destruction from them" (Psalms 19) - we will soon receive the communication lines from the satellite at the end of the world. This is great and happy news. I thank the Starlink representatives for the substantive discussion and understanding regarding the Gaza Strip.
