As a result of the negotiations between the RA Ministry of High-tech Industry and the American Starlink company, the RA government received 56 equipment donated by Starlink in order to prepare for possible future emergency situations. These devices will enable reliable and high-speed Internet connectivity for effective response during disasters and other emergencies. This initiative was implemented with the cooperation of RA high-tech industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The equipment is already in Armenia, and it is planned to allocate it to the RA Ministry of Internal Affairs for the needs of the Rescue Service. They will contribute to the strengthening of communication diversity opportunities in Armenia's emergency situations, in particular, rescue operations, natural disasters, crisis situations, as well as in cases where traditional communication infrastructures are limited, overloaded or broken.
Starlink is the world's leading low-Earth orbit satellite "constellation", providing reliable and high-speed broadband Internet to millions of users around the world. It plays an important role in ensuring communication continuity for emergency response services, especially in remote areas and crisis situations. This donation is a continuation of the effective cooperation formed between Starlink and the RA Ministry of Education and Training, within the framework of which 110 Starlink devices already provide internet connection for thousands of students in schools in remote areas of Armenia.
The RA Ministry of High-Tech Industry highly appreciates the cooperation with Starlink and this important contribution to strengthening Armenia's emergency preparedness and response capabilities.
