Elon Musk's Starlink: A Lifeline for Gaza's Internet Connectivity

TL;DR Summary
Elon Musk admits feeling pressure to provide his Starlink internet service to Gaza after Israeli airstrikes destroyed communication infrastructure in the area. Musk plans to support communication links with aid organizations in Gaza, but it is unclear how this will be implemented due to the lack of terminals on the ground. Israel's communications minister suggests using the promise of internet access to negotiate the release of hostages and warns that Starlink could be used for "terrorist activities" if provided. The Gaza Strip has been without internet connections since the airstrikes, causing a near-total blackout.
