Pentagon probing how shipment of F-35 fighter jet parts was diverted The Pentagon is investigating how a shipment of F-35 fighter jet parts on its way to the U.S. from overseas was diverted, and the military is now trying to retrieve the parts, a defense official confirmed to CBS News. A source briefed on the incident told CBS News a shipment was diverted to Hong Kong. According to Bloomberg News, the parts are now in China's hands, although the Pentagon declined to confirm this. A defense official said in a statement, "The F-35 Joint Program Office and Department of War are aware of a shipment issue of unserviceable F-35 Lightning II components."

Commander rejected plans to rebase farther from Iran before deadly drone strike, sources say The dozens of U.S. troops bombarded by Iranian drones at a small Kuwaiti port in the opening days of the Iran war could have relocated to safer positions in western Saudi Arabia, multiple sources told CBS News, but those plans were rejected by the unit's commanding general despite intelligence warning of a potential attack on their post. About one week before the launch of Operation Epic Fury, most American soldiers and Air Force personnel stationed in Kuwait were moved to Jordan and Saudi Arabia — farther away from Iranian missile range. At least two options were scouted, planned and presented to the leadership of the 103rd Sustainment Command, the Army Reserve unit that ran...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Though the message makes no reference to Cuba, the request is for continued military planning aimed at Cuba, according to multiple U.S. officials who spoke to CBS News under condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. There is no indication in the document that any units have received deployment orders.

It is now up to the judge to determine how much the company would pay, with attorneys representing the state asking for the maximum $5,000 penalty per violation.

First papal visit to France in almost 2 decades attracts hundreds of thousands of worshipers for Mass Hundreds of thousands of people packed Paris' iconic Champs-Élysées Avenue for Pope Leo XIV's big outdoor Mass on Saturday, a sign of the Catholic Church's enduring appeal in the once staunchly Catholic but officially secular country. The Vatican estimated that 800,000 people came out for the Mass — more than the 600,000 who had registered in advance. The stunning turnout testified to the church's enduring influence in France, despite sharp declines in churchgoing in recent decades and secularizing trends that have emptied churches around Europe.

They played all the hottest new songs from some of the biggest stars the country has ever seen: Madonna, David Bowie, Michael Jackson and Prince. They ushered in the era of boy band domination and made a space for teen culture to thrive.

Soaring U.S. diesel prices slam local communities as fuel costs surge Soaring diesel prices are rippling through the U.S. economy, putting a financial squeeze on schools, farmers and small businesses as their fuel costs spike. Average diesel prices hovered around $6.50 a gallon on Friday, just below their record high of $6.53 on Sept. 22 and up from $3.69 a year ago, according to AAA. That jump is raising the cost of operating school buses and forcing some institutions to scramble for ways to cut costs. Farmers, who rely on diesel to run agricultural machinery, also face sharply higher costs, while enterprises ranging from construction firms to food banks report sharply higher expenses to fuel their vehicles and...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Lawyers seek to block today's execution of Texas man, citing Christa Pike's botched lethal injection Lawyers for a Texas man who fatally shot a convenience store clerk are asking a judge to stay his execution by lethal injection set for Wednesday, citing the failed execution of Christa Pike in Tennessee last week. This would be the first execution scheduled in the U.S. since Pike. Because the same drug used in her attempted execution — pentobarbital — would be used in Texas for Jamaal Howard, his attorneys argued the drug poses the same risks, and said they believe the state's supply had become degraded. Pike's lawyers are seeking more information about what went wrong after the 50-year-old survived two doses of pentobarbital. She was hospitalized and, as of Tuesday, was awake and speaking.

Republican concerns mount over livestreaming Fort Hood shooter's execution A growing number of Republicans are voicing concern over the Pentagon's plan to livestream the execution of the Fort Hood shooter in December — or at the very least, saying they won't be watching. Over the weekend, President Trump said the administration was still making a determination about whether the firing-squad execution would be livestreamed, after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that it would be. The execution of Nidal Hasan, the ex-Army major convicted of the 2009 killing of 13 people at Fort Hood, is scheduled for Dec. 3.

Elon Musk's Starlink and Starshield, and what they mean to Ukraine in the war against Russia Over the past week, Ukraine has received a stark reminder of its growing dependence on uninterrupted access to Elon Musk's Starlink and Starshield networks in its drone-heavy war against Russia, now in its fifth year. Ukraine has a fraction of Russia's resources, but its aggressive development of drone warfare on defensive and offensive fronts has helped it endure an onslaught from its much bigger adversary, which invaded Ukraine in early 2022. That was true until last week, when Ukraine reported a throttling of the Starshield network that was causing its drones to stop midflight and fall out of the sky.

"Both SpaceX and Tesla have formed special committees to discuss this idea at the request of shareholders, and these special committees consist of independent directors," Musk said during SpaceX's earnings call with investors, adding that he sees "a lot of merit to combining the companies." Tesla's stock price rose $14.01, or 3.8%, to $387.72, while SpaceX shares jumped $14.62, or 9.9%, to $162.41 in morning trading. Here's what to know about...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |
