Borders closed: use of lethal weapons authorized: voltage doubledThe iron fist of the military is determind to maintain order: thousands are expected to be in hospital and 1200 dead
In accordance with the state of emergency the army together with the border forces and the police sealed off the all transit points between the Solentian republic and Istalia to ensure no illegal immigrants may enter Istalia. The transit of all goods is also stopped until the situation can be calmed and to allow the authorities to check every vehicle and train for illegal scum, causing massive traffic disruptions and chaos along the border. According to some refugees the authorities were being supported by Miltia from another county. Rumors claim this to be Kazulian citizens.
In doing so the three branches of the state used extensive violence in the form of machine guns, teasers and gas (tear and mustard) to stop the human migration while calling up an additional 20,000 conscipts to hold the line. Despite the best efforts a group of at least 200 people broke through a southern smaller checkpoint at the border. The checkpoint was quickly bombed by modern Istalian made airplanes to make the checkpoint impassable. Along the border sections were covered in gas which the wind also carried into Istalian territory.
The voltage of the errected border fence was doubled and is now being considered deadly even for grown men causing some power outages in the border regions. All self-shooting devices along the border also seem to work causing deaths in the hundreds. The police is estimated to hold at least 3200 alleged illegal migrants in custody.

This is the moment we have prepared our border for for so long. We will wash away these elements at the border and we will show that we have the safest border in terra.

State of emergency lifted in Pine, Nord and Winterhold: Fear of Highest Court looms The military announced its intention to make the transformation away from military administration to civil administration by the beginning of 4480Under intense pressure from even within the VR and from international investors (the SOL devalued by 12% during the last year) and the looming Highest Court of Justice ruling on the legitimacy of the state of emergency the First Soldier announced the end of the SoE in all parts of the country except a 100-kilometer zone inland across the Istalian border and confirmed his intention to reshuffle the cabinet to give civil politicans a place as well while stepping down as head of state.
The current ongoing refugee crisis will be my last act as president. One last time I will show the Solentian public that order will be safeguarded anywhere in this country but I will remain head of government and will reappoint myself again as First Soldier shortly before the next election. The state of emergency will be ended as soon as the migrant crisis is being finished and the border can be retransfered back to a normal siuation.
The situation is very simple: The military will never accept a communist or socialist revolution. We demand and represent order and therefore we will hold the next election without a state of emergency because we can and our country is stable.
For that purpose we will stop everyone trying to exit Solentia without the proper permissions by the authorities any I maself will visit the border to support my men in their hard duty.

Meanwhile the Highest Court is expected to hear a case about the ongoing state of emergency. The plaintiff argued that the state of emergency is not necessary and should be ended by the courts decision. As yet is not clear how the judges decide but it could go either way according to some experts.
