🇵🇱 On Wednesday evening, a fire broke out at the Starlink ground station in Wola Krobowska, south of Warsaw. According to RMF FM, this site and a similar one near Kaunas in Lithuania provide internet access for much of Central and Eastern Europe, including Ukraine.
The property owner raised the alarm just after 9 pm. Firefighters found the power supply box on fire and put out an area of about three square metres with a single hose line. The generator was also damaged.
RMF FM reports, citing unofficial sources in the security services, that investigators found a bottle of flammable liquid next to the burned distribution box. One officer described it as looking like a Molotov cocktail. A short circuit had initially been considered as well.
Digital Affairs Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski was quick to call it arson and "the modus operandi of Russian services."
