MRS taps Iridium and Satcom Direct for freight train ops in Brazil

Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) has reportedly changed its strategy to allocating two unsold satellite orbital slots after last week’s auction failed to attract any bids.

UAE-based Al Yah Satellite Communications Company (Yahsat) says it has contracted SpaceX as the launch provider for its upcoming new geostationary satellites, Al Yah 4 (AY4) and Al Yah 5 (AY5).

Africa Mobile Networks (AMN) said on Monday that it has connected more than 100 rural base stations in Nigeria to Starlink’s LEO satellite network, which has resulted in a 45% boost in traffic on those sites.
