NEW YORK, June 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASTS) between November 14, 2023 and April 1, 2024, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important June 17, 2024 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased AST SpaceMobile securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the AST SpaceMobile class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=24272 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than June 17, 2024. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) production of AST SpaceMobile’s five Block 1 BlueBird satellites had been negatively impacted by two suppliers of key subsystems; (2) as a result, AST SpaceMobile had not substantially completed the production of the Block 1 BlueBird satellites; (3) as a result, AST SpaceMobile’s five Block 1 BlueBird satellites were not on track to launch in the first quarter of 2024; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, defendants’ positive statements about AST SpaceMobile’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the AST SpaceMobile class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=24272 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

As the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip enters its 244th day, the occupation army committed on Thursday a massacre in a school affiliated with the Relief and Works Agency for the Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) in which hundreds of displaced people in Nusseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip, reside, killing and wounding dozens. WAFA correspondent said that the medical teams and civil defense recovered 32 bodies of killed Palestinians and dozens of injuries from the Male Al -Nusairat Preparatory School, which houses displaced people in Camp 2 in Nuseirat. He pointed out that an Israeli war plane targeted the upper floors of the school at night as people were sleeping, which led to killing and injuring a large number of them. Six people were killed and others were wounded as a result of the bombing of the occupation aircraft of a house owned by Al -Madani family in the camp. The occupation artillery launched a violent shelling that affected the eastern region of Al -Bureij camp in the middle of the Gaza S trip, as the warplanes launched fire in the vicinity of a hall in the camp. The occupation artillery shelled areas on the east of Al -Bureij and Al -Maghazi camps in the central Gaza Strip, while the artillery stationed in Netsarim axis targeted several shells of the homes of citizens in Tal Al -Hawa neighborhood, southwest of Gaza City and the Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of the city. Additionally, the Israeli warplanes bombed areas in the neighborhoods of the eastern and central city of Rafah, coinciding with artillery shelling, as the occupation forces opened fire extensively towards the homes of citizens east of Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip. Israeli artillery fired her shells towards the homes of citizens east of the town of Al -Qarara, northeast of Khan Yunis, in the south of the Gaza Strip. Medical sources confirmed that the death toll from the Israeli onslaught since October 7 has risen to 36,586 reported Palestinian fatalities, with an additional 83,074 individuals sustaining injuries. The number of victims is expected to increase further as rescue and emergency teams face challenges in accessing the affected areas, with hundreds more feared buried under the rubble of destroyed buildings.
