### Underground Dombrad 'Elysium Base' Revealed

Adamar has made the starting revelation of a hidden community of aberrations, infected and regular humans, living under the ruins of Dombrad. Photographic evidence has been revealed from 'Operation HADES' an Adamari military operation in the Dombrad metro system. Extreme resistance was met and a Adamari military perimeter has been deployed around the city. Adamar has also released documentation regarding the construction of 'Elysium' and extensive underground bunker facility build by Bakia prior to the civil war. Adamar claims this is the facility the coalition researched the Alaunus virus in, and then tried to cover up. This has been met with ardent denial from Perinost and Kenshi, with a Perinosti spokesman revealing coalition intelligence about the existence of the aberration infected population and their bombing attempts to control the threat. Newly declassified coalition documents also claim that Elysium was merely an extensive fallout shelter, but had no bioweapon research capabilities. In spite of these details, skepticism agains the coalition has mounted greatly.

### Savian Vanguardists Crush Opposition

After a number of bloody battles and massacres, organized resistance to the new vanguardist authority in Savia have been eliminated. In the aftermath of this victory, a number of FVRC delegates met with many members of the Savian Neemanist leadership to discuss integration into the FVRC sphere of vanguardist nations in exchange for a moderation of their domestic practices. However after a long negotiation, a suicide bomber disguised as a page managed to detonate his explosive, killing much of the negotiating leadership and wounding Rousuf Al'Rakia, who only survived due to stepping out of the room immediately before. The Lagrimas de Olvido have claimed responsibility. In the aftermath of this attack, General Idris Madari, a hardline revolutionary infamous as 'the butcher of Al-Barid' has seized power. Has has announced that the true and necessary revolution cannot and should not ever be moderated, especially in light of continuous religious and monarchist violence.

### Assassination of Lalian Consul Cesar Freda

In an attack reminiscent of the assassination of the late Sistan Prince, Consul Cesar Freda was assassinated after repeated shots from high powered sniper rifles. In the aftermath one of the assassins was cornered and killed by Lalian security services while the rest fled into the city. It is unknown who conducted the attack though evidence from the assassin seems to indicate a connection to extreme right-wing elements within Lalia, although the authenticity of this connection is held in doubt and many believe that there may be a fabrication, similar to how the assassin carried a Kenshi rifle, but was clearly not a Kenshi operative.

## Coalition

### United Province Government Collapses

The latest attempt to form an emergency government in the Wallhem parliament collapsed after an aberration resembling a mutated tentacle covered bear broke through containment. There has been no official continuation of the government at this time. The situation in the United Province is dire, in many ways worse than even Bakia, with provincial, municipal and military authorities acting independently on their own initiative, even coming into conflict for resources.

### Dytov Joins Coalition

In a move that was met with surprisingly little fanfare, the Dytovian Federation has announced that it will begin the process for Coalition membership, a process that is expected to be completed in short order.

## FVRC

### Ardenica's Got Talent and COMRADES Hit the Air

The newest tv production from Kallywood has hit the international airwaves, focusing on entertainment with a vanguardist undercurrent in each episode. Distribution has been restricted heavily in many monarchist countries.

### Rousuf Al'Rakia Announces End of Compromises

Rising political star within the FVRC and prospective leader of the VIU, Rousuf Al'Rakia has announced a vision of a far more militant and combatant FVRC, attacking the spread of religion and monarchism and protecting allied vanguardist states with its nuclear arsenal.

### Operation Lionheart Concludes

In a show of military strength, a large scale vanguardist military exercise, lead by the FVRC has raised concern about the size and capabilities of the FVRC military from international observers. Bondan have called the exercise an outrageous provocation and attack on international security.

### Emperor Arkhan Visit to Iken

In light of the terrorist attack perpetrated by the Ordo Deorum, the Emperor has visited the city of Iken to offer his support to survivors in person. Members of the Eyes of Jatar revealed the successful arrest of the terrorist bomber, Harold Bardo, a Adamari immigrant from Balochistan. Investigations are still ongoing into the upper leadership of the Ordo Decorum and those who facilitated the attack. Citizens are reminded that any cooperation for any radical or subversive movements is tantamount to hearsay, and all faithful citizens are required to report suspicious activity.

### Unknown Plane Shot Down Over Southern Adamar

An advanced anti-aircraft network within Adamar has proved its usefulness after a plane attempting to fly over Adamari airspace at high altitude what damaged and crash landed. There are believed to be no survivors and the plane is believed to be unsalvageable, although the crash site has been cordoned off by Adamari security. There is no confirmation on who is responsible, although many experts agree there is only one likely candidate with the air technology and incentive to conduct such an operation within Ardenica.
