Need help with gadget for GPS reception

I have someone who's currently located in a war torn country trying to document few things. He carries with him R5. He asked me if there's a way he can make R5 tether to a device via Wifi so that he's able to upload few photos. The device can only connect to the Internet using GPS based internet access (yes - he's aware its slow).

Alternatively and EVEN BETTER is there any gadget which connects to the camera using USB and in the gadget can connect to the Internet via Wifi / GPS (like StarLink).

He says why can't cameras be equipped with a feature where one can insert a SIM card with a data plan?
