An Israeli drone strike in southwestern Syria has injured several people, the country's foreign ministry says, in the latest of near-daily Israeli incursions and attacks in the area. Syria's official Alikhbariya channel reported on Saturday that a man was wounded when an Israeli drone hit his truck near the town of Beit Jinn in the western Damascus countryside. The activity "posed an immediate threat to our forces", the military added. Syria's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates said in a statement that Saturday's strike resulted in several civilian injuries. It said it "condemns in the strongest terms" the targeting of a "civilian vehicle" by an Israeli drone.

The car world is filled with designers still obsessed with shoehorning sex into their rides. Slate went a different route, and it's why people are smitten with the charming electric pickup. Tisha Johnson is a rare anomaly in the car world: a design leader for an automaker who is not a man. In a resolutely testosterone-fueled industry where, traditionally, women have seemingly been given positions of authority in design labs as long as they focus on interiors, colors, or material selections, very few have been afforded free rein on the most important visual element of the car, the exterior, let alone promoted to run the entire aesthetic show. As head of design at Slate, this gender-specific fact might be why the world has fallen in love with the Jeff Bezos-backed truck . Casual observers might put the Slate EV's popularity down to its low price. Starting at $24,950, the Slate arriving later this year won't just be the cheapest EV on the US market; it will also be the cheapest pickup truck of any power flavor.

The California Teamsters union is suing several state agencies, including the DMV, over rules pertaining to self-driving trucks, according to a report by Politico. The suit claims that Governor Gavin Newsom's administration improperly rolled out a series of regulations that will likely bring robot trucks to state roads. This stems from a move the DMV made back in April, in which new rules were adopted regarding autonomous trucks. California had previously prohibited large self-driving vehicles. This was due, in large part, to objections from unions regarding potential job loss.

Middle-mile logistics describes the problem of routing parcels through a network of hubs, which are linked by a fixed set of trucks. The main challenge comes from the finite capacity of the trucks. The decision to allocate a parcel to a specific truck might block another parcel from using the same truck. It is thus necessary to solve for all parcel routes simultaneously. Exact solution methods scale poorly with the problem size and real-world instances are intractable.
