Started reporting this story back in Dhaka and saw firsthand from April to August how opaque the whole Starlink process was. Almost no one wanted to talk; the hush-hush and lack of transparency around the license were honestly shocking. @GeorgiaGee14, @MaryamSaleh, @Miraajripon.
How much did Starlink benefit from the close relationship between Elon Musk and Donald Trump? Read Rest of Worldās new investigative feature from @GeorgiaGee14, @MehediMarof, and @Miraajripon: https://t.co/ULvZKsU6L5

My colleague @viviannereim and I have been investigating for months how the children of Kenyan mothers in Saudi Arabia have been deprived of papers and medical care. And when they turn to their embassy, they are berated or saddled with paperwork.
