Starlink will provide one month of free satellite internet service to users in Venezuela following the devastating earthquakes that struck the country this week, helping restore communications in affected areas.

According to Reuters, SpaceX’s satellite broadband business is also deploying additional Starlink terminals to regions where communications infrastructure has been damaged by the disaster.

The move highlights the growing role of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks in emergency response, providing connectivity when terrestrial mobile and fixed networks are disrupted. Starlink has previously supplied emergency communications following natural disasters and conflicts, including in Ukraine and after major hurricanes.

The initiative also reflects the increasing importance of satellite connectivity across Latin America, where operators and governments are increasingly turning to LEO services to extend coverage in underserved and disaster-prone areas.
