Elon Musk has claimed that he’s being threatened by Russia for providing internet to Ukraine.
The tech mogul’s Starlink satellites have been supplying Ukraine with internet access, as the war-torn country is experiencing widespread power outages due to the Russian invasion.
The Tesla CEO has been threatened by the head of Russia’s space agency, Dmitry Rogozin, over his attempts to provide the country with internet access.
Musk tweeted information from Rogozin to the Russian media on Sunday evening. The head of Russia’s space agency sent a statement on Telegram himself. He wrote:
‘From the testimony of the captured chief of staff of the 36th Marine Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel Dmitry Kormyankov, it follows that the ground-based subscriber equipment of the Starlink satellite company Elon Musk was delivered to the militants of the Nazi Azov Battalion and the Marines of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to Mariupol by military helicopters,’
‘Elon Musk is thus involved with supplying the fascist forces in Ukraine with military communications,’
‘And for this you will have to answer in an adult way, Elon, no matter how much you’ll play the fool.’
The billionaire then tweeted:
If I die under mysterious circumstances, it’s been nice knowin ya

Rogozin and Musk definitely have some bad blood between them, with Rogozin calling Musk ‘little devil’ and criticizing the Tesla Cybertruck, as reported by Business Insider.
Watch your back, Elon…
