Frequency allocation authority ... sounds a bit like Israel having the
authority to tell Hamas where to park its cars.
Ideally, one would have a government organisation in the area. That
gov't would have a frequency allocation subsidiary. That subsidiary
would allow, or not allow, starlink to emit in the area.
As Starlink isn't officially available in Israel yet and it's a small
market, the regulatory leverage of the Israeli government against
SpaceX is probably low.
I did not know Starlink is not available in Israel.
The question would be who has authority over the frequencies above the
disputed territories. And it is that authority that would allow, or
disallow, the use of starlink frequencies (somewhere at 10-15GHz IIRC).
All Starlink would need to do is request access to that spectrum.
Hamas is the elected government of Gaza
