A former Israeli prime minister has revealed that Israel covertly supplied Starlink internet receivers to Iran to bolster anti-government protests. The initiative aimed to provide protesters with uncensored internet access. However, the former prime minister alleges that the current government, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, did not fully support or continue the operation. Details of the smuggling operation were disclosed on Tuesday, confirming previous reports of efforts to circumvent Iranian internet restrictions. The move underscores Israel’s interest in supporting opposition movements within Iran. No further details regarding the extent or duration of the smuggling operation were immediately available. The current Israeli government has not yet officially commented on the allegations.
