Starlink’s High-Speed Internet Goes Live in Somalia

0

Starlink’s high-speed internet has officially gone live in Somalia, marking the company’s entry into its 25th African market. The National Communications Authority (NCA) approved Starlink’s operational licence in April 2025, paving the way for its launch. Government officials have welcomed the development as a key step towards narrowing the country’s digital divide, as it aligns with the focus areas of the Somali National ICT Policy and Strategy (2019–2024), including the establishment of domestic digital infrastructure and facilitating access.

Starlink is set to expand internet coverage and significantly advance digital inclusion across Somalia, especially in a country where 70% of the population struggles to access broadband services. Starlink’s residential offering is priced at USD 70 per month, with a one-time hardware cost of USD 390. While these costs may pose a barrier to widespread adoption, particularly when compared to local telecom providers, some users may prioritise the benefits of low-latency, high-speed connectivity over affordability.

The Government of Korea contributed US$10 million to support primary health care and WASH services in Ethiopia

The Government of the Republic of Korea generously contributed US$10 million (approximately ETB 1.37 billion) to UNICEF to enhance primary health care (PHC) and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) services for women and children affected by the humanitarian crisis in Ethiopia.  

Vulnerable communities impacted by conflict, climate-related disasters, and disease outbreaks urgently need sustainable access to safe water, integrated with essential primary healthcare services. The health interventions aim to ensure access to essential PHC services in humanitarian settings and respond to disease outbreaks. Activities will include supporting Mobile Health and Nutrition Teams (MHNTs), which in some regions are the primary means of delivering lifesaving health services to internally displaced persons, conflict-affected communities, and hard-to-reach communities, including pastoralists.
