What happened
Late Wednesday, a Starlink base near Warsaw went up in flames, specifically the gear that supplies electricity to the station. Prime Minister Donald Tusk said the facility is operating now, and he did not say whether service was ever interrupted. He also cautioned that it is premature to say what caused the incident.
Why authorities are concerned
Krzysztof Gawkowski told TVP Info that signs point to an effort to disrupt a key node that also helps deliver internet to Ukraine, saying it could be part of Russia's hybrid warfare. Poland has faced a run of suspicious events: hackers have struck several essential services, including water systems, energy infrastructure, and hospitals; a section of railway linking Warsaw with the Ukrainian border was harmed in what authorities said was Russian sabotage; and a Russian missile that crashed in Poland in late July. Internal Security Agency officers are examining the site.
