Iran, Stroppa: ‘Citizens connected to the internet thanks to Starlink’

Rome, 11 January (LaPresse) – Iranian citizens are connected to the internet thanks to Starlink. This claim comes from Andrea Stroppa, representative in Italy of X owner Elon Musk, who published a photo of phones connected to the network showing images of the Iranian flag from the era of the Shah and President Donald Trump making the victory sign. ‘Some in Italy have called him a “privateer”, but for those who are oppressed, Musk represents freedom and courage,’ writes Stroppa, ‘in the photo, the hands of Iranian citizens who are connected to the internet thanks to Starlink.’
