Fire at Polish Starlink station that serves Ukraine probed as possible sabotage
A fire broke out on the evening of 23 September at a Starlink ground communications station in the Polish village of Wola Krobowska, Masovian Voivodeship, damaging antennas and a power generator. Polish authorities suspect the blaze was deliberate, and senior officials have publicly described the incident as sabotage and an element of hybrid warfare. The station, operated by state-owned operator Exatel, provides internet access across much of Central and Eastern Europe, including for the Ukrainian military, but has since resumed normal operation.
