OREANDA-NEWS  It became known about the suspension of the issuance of permits for the use of the American Starlink satellite Internet service in India. This is due to the potential threat to national security in the country, Bloomberg reports.

It is clarified that the reason was concerns about the use of satellite terminals by Elon Musk's SpaceX company in the conflict over the attack by the United States and Israel on Iran. The agency reports that New Delhi is worried about the issue of the ability to control the operator in conditions of tension.

The security services at the Indian Interior Ministry have not issued the final permits required to launch Starlink.
