Summary
Two masked individuals set fire to 11 out of 17 Starlink antennas in a secret facility near Sofia, Bulgaria, used for communication with SpaceX satellites and providing critical connections for the Ukrainian military. The incident occurred after it was reported that Starlink was curtailed for Ukraine. Bulgarian authorities are investigating the incident, which is part of a series of suspected sabotage operations targeting Ukraine’s military capabilities. This follows a similar incident in Poland in late September, where a Starlink ground station was also set on fire, with Polish authorities suspecting Russian involvement.
