The United States reportedly “covertly sent thousands of Starlink terminals into Iran” after the suppression of the Iranian uprising by the regime in January 2026, in “an effort to keep dissidents online following Tehran’s stifling of internet access.”
According to the WSJ material, “after Iranian authorities smothered mounting unrest in January by killing thousands of protesters and severely cutting internet connectivity, the U.S. smuggled roughly 6,000 of the satellite-internet kits into the country.”
