5 hours ago
  • A fire at a Starlink ground station in Poland was deliberately caused, says digital affairs minister Krzysztof Gawkowski.
  • The facility provides internet services to Central and Eastern Europe, including Ukraine, which heavily relies on Starlink.
  • Minister Gawkowski states the modus operandi is clearly Russian and part of hybrid warfare, though investigations are ongoing.
  • Polish security services confirm arson but say it's too early to determine motives or perpetrators.
  • The incident follows other suspected Russian sabotage acts in Poland, including a drone plant fire and airspace violations.
