Elon Musk’s Companies Added to Iran’s Military Target List – WANA News Agency
WANA (Jun 11) – Iran has placed economic interests and infrastructure linked to Elon Musk in Western Asia and Israel onto its updated list of military targets.
Tehran cited the military utilization of Starlink and other Musk-led projects by the United States and Israel as the baseline for this decision.
According to reports, the inclusion of all assets connected to economic holdings under Elon Musk’s management across Western Asia—including Arab nations and Israel—is currently under active consideration for Iran’s updated targeting bank.
This move follows what Tehran claims is definitive proof that the U.S. and Israeli militaries are utilizing infrastructure managed by Musk, specifically the Starlink satellite network and the Twitter (X) platform.
Iranian officials previously highlighted Musk’s military assistance to the U.S. Armed Forces via the “Starshield” project and the launch of military satellites.
These operations reportedly involve Earth observation, encrypted communications, and secure data transmission. Specific infrastructure now designated within Iran’s updated targeting database includes:
Starlink Ground Stations: Facilities located in Israel, Qatar, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Oman.
SpaceX Shareholders: Regional financial entities holding stakes in the aerospace company, including Abu Dhabi’s Alpha Dhabi and Mubadala investment funds.
An informed source stated that the U.S. military, backed by Musk-linked enterprises, has engaged in hostile actions, including a recent strike on water infrastructure in southern Iran.
The source added that the Islamic Republic of Iran reserves the formal right to target any and all facilities associated with holdings managed by Musk across the region and within Israeli territory.
