Poland arrests third suspect in Starlink station arson, reportedly a Ukrainian

1 min read

Poland's Internal Security Agency (ABW) announced the arrest of a third suspect in connection with the deliberate arson of a Starlink satellite ground station on Polish territory. Media reports indicate the individual is a Ukrainian citizen.

The investigation into the Starlink station fire has now resulted in three arrests. The attack disrupted satellite connectivity services in the region, though the full operational impact was not disclosed. Polish authorities are treating the incident as an act of sabotage and are investigating possible links to foreign intelligence services.

The case has drawn attention given the critical role Starlink plays in supporting Ukrainian military operations and the sensitivity of the timing amid broader US-Ukraine tensions over Starlink access.
