BREAKING: The Municipality of Tomar, Portugal, has confirmed that
@Starlink communication terminals will be installed at the municipality and its parish councils in the coming weeks to maintain satellite communications during emergencies.
The deployment follows Storm Kristin, when several rural communities lost conventional communications and, in some cases, were unable to contact authorities or request help.
The announcement was made by Tomar Mayor Tiago Carrão during a municipal executive meeting on Monday, August 24.
