"The world deserves to witness the massacre that's about to take place" - UFC alum calls out Elon Musk to activate Starlink for Gaza
Former UFC fighter Jake Shields has called upon Elon Musk to help show the world the true nature of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Over the last few weeks, tensions have escalated into war between Israel and Palestine, which has already seen a number of soldiers and innocent individuals lose their lives.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has since announced the mobilization of Israel's army as well as made the decision to shut off the power and water supply to the city of Gaza, which has been ruled by the Hamas, a Palestinian militant group, since 2007.
Addressing the situation on X (formerly Twitter), Jake Shields asked Elon Musk to activate the Starlink satellites so the world can see exactly what is happening:
"Hey @elonmusk how about activating Starlink for Gaza? The world deserves to witness the massacre that's about to take place."
Sheilds' post comes after the news that Israel reportedly informed a Gaza hospital to evacuate within two hours or risk being caught by an incoming missile strike.
Musk is unlikely to respond to Shield's post, having reportedly distanced himself and Starlink from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The Space X CEO had previously turned off his satellites during a Ukrainian mission, fearing Russian president Vladimir Putin would use nuclear weapons in response.
When Georges St-Pierre discussed training with Elon Musk
Elon Musk once recruited the help of former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre in order to train him for his potential bout against Mark Zuckerberg.
While talk about the fight between the two billionaires has simmered down, both Musk and Zuckerberg have openly stated they are willing to face one another in an MMA fight for charity. There were rumors that the contest would take place at the Colosseum in Rome, Italy.
In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda MMA, St-Pierre detailed his experience of training the Space X CEO. According to 'Rush', Elon Musk is much stronger than the average person:
"He is very strong, much stronger than the average man, and he is very tough. And obviously, historically speaking, Elon, when he puts his mind and energy into something, he is almost unstoppable."
St-Pierre added:
"I let Elon know that if he needs me, I will be there to help him if he needs."
