Elon Musk announced on his social network X that Yemen has gained access to the Starlink satellite internet system. This raises serious concerns, since a large part of the country is controlled by the Houthis, who are hostile to the United States and the European Union.

While Starlink is designed to provide internet access in hard-to-reach and conflict-ridden areas, the fact that this technology is present in Houthi-controlled territory could complicate the situation with international relations and security. The possible use of Starlink by the Houthis raises questions about how this technology could affect the balance of power in the region and what measures world powers will take to control its use in Yemen.
