 Musk's Starlink given green light in DR Congo after earlier ban


Democratic Republic of Congo said had become the latest African country to grant a licence to tech billionaire Elon Musk's Starlink and that the company would begin operations soon, according to Reuters.


The government had previously resisted allowing access to Starlink, with military officials warning it could be used by rebel groups including Rwandan-backed M23, which has seized more territory than ever before in the east of the country this year.

The same entity announced on Friday that the company had been given a licence and "will proceed with the launch of its services in the coming days."


Starlink is also trying to establish a presence in neighbouring Uganda. Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni said on Tuesday that he had a productive meeting with Starlink representatives.


It was granted licences by Somalia and Lesotho in April.
