Senator Menipo Leontius
_______________________________________________

Today we receive terrible news from the city of Elwai, as Senator Menipo Leontius was murdered last night. The Senator, great-grandson of Consul Trachalio Leontius who served as Consul from 4737 to 4748, was attacked at around 11 PM. A witness, who refused to give their name in order to maintain privacy, says that when they were walking down the street, they saw a man approach Senator Leontius and pull a knife on him. After sharing just a few words, the man attacked Leontius, stabbing him repeatedly. The witness says that they immediately cried for help. They then approached the attacker and pushed him off the Senator. The attacker then confronted the witness and attempted to stab them. The witness was unable to avoid the attacker and was injured. The attacker would have most likely killed the witness had it not been for a police car that arrived at the scene. The attacker attempted to escape but was arrested by the officers. The Senator and the witness were both taken to a hospital by ambulance. There, the doctors did their best to save them both. The witness survived but Senaroe Leontius did not. This was all confirmed by the security cameras in the area, which recorded the brutal video.

A few hours after the death of the Senator was announced, the terrorist organisation known as AEFNS claimed responsibility for the attack. This was confirmed when questioning the subject, as he had spent time with the man responsible for the Bombing of Secretariat of Foreign Affairs. The group that has been responsible for the deaths of over 150 people has been priority number one in Kundrati and now it has become even more important.

Martie Aregita said in a press conference that:

Bringing to justice the disgusting people behind the terrorist organisation known as AEFNS is one of the biggest priorities for us. Originally, we had thought that dealing with AEFNS internally was the best option. This has been proven wrong. We will now take a different route. We will cooperate with NACTO and Endralonian Admiral Trón in any way that is required to bring these criminals to justice.


The announcement was received with support, especially from the Senate, with many Senators now afraid of the reach of AEFNS. Now many of them have requested extra security from the Kundrati Special Service.

We give the family of Menipo Leontius our deepest condolences.

Vitalinus in his car during the last race of the season
_________________________________________________

Today Sparax Vitalinus was crowned champion of the Kundrati Racing Cup after an exciting season that went down to the last race. He beat his two closest competitors, Hanno Gordian and teammate Mellera Olabarte, who finished second and third respectively. As for the Assemblers Championship, it was won by Azkar Racing, the racing division of the most successful car company in Kundrati.

The initiative of having a racing league came from the Kundrati Sporting Association, seeing how racing had been gaining popularity in the country in recent years. The competition is carried out in single-seaters that have the ability to reach speeds of up to 260 kilometres per hour. The cup has two championships. The Motorist Championship and the Assembler Championship. The winner of the Motorists Championship is the driver with the biggest amount of points at the end of the season. The winner of the Assemblers Championship is the team with the most points. Each assembler has three drivers that compete for them. The Kundrati Racing Association (KRA) gives each team a budget of 20 million LOD. Any extra money that they get is from sponsors. An example of this is the assembler Azkar, who had been sponsored by Endralonian company "The Fashion Company". The races took place over the 6 different racing circuits in Kundrati, having an Exhibition and a Sprint every race. The Exhibition is a full race, whilst the Sprint is a 6 lap race that is more focused on speed. For the next season, there are already 3 new tracks being built, and by 4878 we expect to have 14 new tracks on the calendar.

This season only had 6 teams racing, but for next season we have already received the announcement that there will be 2 new teams joining us. One of which will be sponsored by the Lievenian Trade Group. There are also rumours of another team interested in joining, bringing the total of teams in the paddock for 4876 to nine. We are eager to see what will happen.

Agents Observa, Fänger, Tokkaepi and Hammer
______________________________________________

Today the Kundrati game developer Ibuhard has announced their latest game release; "Rain Two: Assault". The game developer had been working on the game for the past few years, and now it has been released for the public as a Gamestation Exclusive. The game is completely multiplayer, with no single-player options other than twelve 5 minute missions that act as a tutorial. It is a tactical first-person shooter. What makes it different from other games though is the use of Agents. Each of these agents has a specific set of weapons and abilities, and they have their advantages and disadvantages.

Let's walk you through a round. In the beginning, you will be assigned as an Attacker or Defender. The operators you can pick depend on what you are assigned as. Then you have to pick one of these operators. For demonstration purposes, we'll say you are Defender and pick Fänger. Fänger has a very good carbine rifle but a middle-of-the-pack pistol. His ability consists of putting down up to 3 trophy systems that will catch any projectiles that come its way, protecting defenders from grenades. He can also bring either barbwire or a bulletproof camera to give intel. As the round begins, Defenders have 45 seconds to prepare their defences, using barricades to stop people coming in through doors and windows, and metal reinforcements to protect the walls. As this happens, the attackers use drones to locate the objective; a bomb. In order for the attackers to win, they must either kill all defenders or plant a defuser so it stops the bomb. For the defenders to win, they will have to either kill the attackers or let the 3-minute timer run out. As the preparation phase ends, the attack phase begins. This is where all the action happens. The attacker will plan a strategy to enter the building, clearing as many rooms as possible in as little time as they can. The defenders will try to get the attackers to waste time. After setting your trophy systems in the objective room, Fänger leaves the objective to hunt for attackers. This is called roaming, and your objective is to get the attackers to spend time trying to kill you. As the round progresses, the attackers will try to breach the walls of the objective using breaching Agents. One of them is Freespirit. He is armed with a blow torch and will make a hole in the wall. If the attackers are able to breach, roamers will go back to the objective for a final stand against the attackers. This usually happens in the last 30 seconds of the round, where the action is so fast-paced kills happen between mere seconds of each other.
The round ends. To win a match, you must win three rounds.

Each round is a 5v5 with no respawn, adding another element to the strategy. This game can be played with random players, but it is better when you have 4 people to play it with, as you will be able to create strategies to destroy the other team. There are currently over 50 different ops to pick from, with more to come as the game will receive constant updates for the next 8 years.

The storage facility on fire
__________________________________________________________

Earlier this morning, the terrorist organisation known as AEFNS attacked a minor military outpost in Jildrath. The organisation claimed responsibility for the attack shortly after it happened. The outpost itself was a rather small military base in close proximity of Keita, a medium-sized city in Jildrath. The part of the base attacked was a storage facility, storing some equipment. It is believed that the terrorists wanted to destroy the storage units containing weapons, but due to security, they were unable to do so. The attack destroyed several dozens of different pieces of equipment, including uniforms, vests, ammunition and many other things.

The attack happened at around 5 in the morning. The attackers approached from the east side carrying large bags with explosives. They climbed over a fence where they shot one guard. They left the explosives and set a timer. When a soldier came around to do his patrol, he saw his dead comrade on the floor, and engaged with the terrorists, killing two and injuring one, before being injured himself. He dragged himself and the other soldier's bodies to safety. As he was reporting the incident through his radio, the storage facility blew up. There were six men in, 2 from Kundrati and four from Endralon. An additional 4 were in an armoured vehicle outside of the storage as they had heard the gunshots. The explosion shook the entire facilities, and people all the way in Keita felt it. the six men inside and 3 in the car were killed instantly. The soldier who had previously defended from the terrorists rushed to help his comrade, as his car was leaking petrol and would light on fire. He was able to save the trapped soldier and rush to safety before it exploded. After the fire was extinguished, the investigation on how the attack could have happened began.

Before much of the investigation could be conducted, all over social media AEFNS claimed responsibility for the attack. Further analysis of the explosion confirmed this, as it was almost identical to the attack on the Secretariat of Foreign Affairs at Riverford back in 4871. After AEFNS claimed responsibility, Prime Minister Martie Aregita promised that she would talk with the heads of state of Endralon and Davostan to figure out a better way of dealing with the organisation. During their claim for the attack, the organisation mentioned the name of a "Faam". It is unknown who this man is, but many in intelligence seem to believe "Faam" could be the leader of AEFNS in Kundrati.

More on this ongoing story as it happens.

A MiG-35
_______________________________-

Today we receive news from two different military deals reached. One with Trigunia and one with Lodamun.

The treaty with Trigunia will consist of the purchase of 38 military aircraft. The purchase consisted of fifteen MiG-35, fifteen Su-34 and eight Su-25SM. The MiG-35 was developed by TACFRI and is a multi-role fighter focused on gaining air superiority. It has a magnificent radar that has a very big range and the ability to detect many enemy aircraft at once. The Su-34 is a twin-seater, twin-engine aircraft, capable of acting both as a fighter and as a bomber-strike aircraft. It is extremely fast and has hardpoints for a total of 12 combinations of rockets, missiles and bombs. The Su-25SM is a single-seater with a twin-engine, it's main purpose being providing infantry with ground support. It has a very modern computer that improves on previous models' navigation and attack precision.
The total price paid for the 38 aircraft was of $670 million LOD.

The deal with Lodamun was different, as they were the ones purchasing. They purchased 500 IBBI armoured vehicles. The IBBI is 7.5 metres long and 3 metres tall. It can carry up to eleven men, 3 crew and 8 passengers. It's Maine weapon is a 25mm calibre machine gun, although it also has a secondary 7.62mm machine gun. It uses a diesel engine and can achieve speeds of up to 100 kilometres per hour. The total price for the massive purchase was of $1B LOD, at a unitary cost of $2M LOD each IBBI. The purchase was so massive, that it will take KMW three years to complete the delivery of all the vehicles.

(OOC source for IBBI is the french VBCI

3M disribution centre after the attack
________________________________________________________

Today, citizens all over Kundrati woke up to the sound of explosions. As fear and chaos spread throughout the nation, everyone wondered what had happened. The answers came shortly, as police and reporters alike arrived at the eleven different explosion sites. The explosions happened at eight LTG towers and three minor 3M distribution centres. Most of the day has been spent trying to contain the fires that have erupted. Many are concerned that the fires caused by the LTG towers explosions could create wildfires if not controlled, but it seemed that the Kundrati Fire Department has it under control. The only good news we can muster is that no one died in these attacks, and only two people receiving injuries. They are 3M workers who have some second-degree burns.

It wasn't long after the explosion that rumours started to go around that the feared terrorist organisation known as "AEFNS" was responsible for the attack. Sure enough, shortly after this rumours started spreading, the Anti-Endralon Front for National Sovereignty claimed responsibility for the attack. The facilities attacked were all rather minor, the only exception being a 3M distribution centre responsible for most deliveries in southern Elwai. Even though the damage has been done mainly to small communities and towns, it has shown that the Kundrati cell of AEFNS is capable of very large scale attacks. Many are concerned as to what the organisation's next targets could be, following their success. Experts say that this was a preparation attack and that they have something a lot bigger planned.

Prime Minister Aregita has assured that she is working hard with Admiral Trón to bring these delinquents to justice.
