Four Iranian soldiers were killed in Israeli air strikes on military sites in Iran early Saturday. The attack came almost a month after a barrage of ballistic missiles fired by Tehran hit at least three military and intelligence installations in Israel. The Iranian ballistic missile attack on 1 October was itself a much-anticipated reprisal for the assassinations of resistance leaders Hasan Nasrallah and Ismail Haniyeh, the latter while a guest of the state in Tehran.

With its manufacturing practices under scrutiny, its machinists on strike and losses piling up, Boeing is said to be considering selling parts of its fabled space business. But few industry analysts think Boeing will put its extensive El Segundo, California, satellite operations on the table. New Boeing Chief Executive Kelly Ortberg said during a recent earnings call that the aerospace giant was considering shedding assets outside of the company's core commercial aviation and defense businesses, adding that Boeing was better off "doing less and doing it better than doing more and not doing it well." That could mean that Boeing sees no future for its troubled Starliner spacecraft, which was developed to service the International Space Station.
