The company has deployed over 100 Starlink satellites and announced the donation of 1,000 terminals to emergency responders. Additionally, Starlink will provide free usage of all terminals in the region until it has fully recovered. This initiative is part of a broader effort by Starlink to support disaster relief and ensure communication access during emergencies.
