The union representing Boeing employees have begun a strike after about 3,200 workers at facilities in St. Louis and other locations voted to reject a modified four-year labor agreement.

More than 3,200 union members who assemble Boeing's fighter jets in the St. Louis area and Illinois went on strike on Monday after rejecting a second contract offer the previous day. Boeing Defense said it was ready for the work stoppage and it will implement a contingency plan that uses non-labor workers.

Some 3,200 Boeing workers who build fighter jets in St. Louis and another Missouri site and one in Illinois are on strike, their union says.

Ukraine's Air Force said Moscow's forces launched an Iskander-M ballistic missile from Russia's Bryansk Oblast and 46 Shahed-type drones and decoy drones from Kursk, Bryansk, Orel, and Primorsk-Akhtarsk.

Ukraine’s Security Service said its drones destroyed one jet and damaged four at Saki military airfield overnight, aiming to weaken Russia’s war capability in the occupied Crimea and on the Black Sea.
