Lourennais forces have already claimed lands outside of Kaliburg and along the coasts of the island of Ananto
At 7:04 A.M this morning, the Lourennais Royal Armed Forces began the Invasion of Kalistan which involved support from the
Royal Air Force, the Third and Fourth Royal Navy Fleets and the inclusion of over sixty thousand men stormed the beaches of
the island of Ananto as well as the skies over Kaliburg. The Royal Navy backed the Royal Ground Components landing in Port
Swedes, Sulari, and Gendaris. The Lourennais Royal Air Force immediately began to provide reconnaissance and air coverage
over the beaches and areas the Royal Ground Component landed on. Patches of the Kalistani Nationalist Militia set up a small
defensive points along the beaches and hills near Port Swedes. The Royal Force was able to destroy most of the defensive
points set up, however the bulk of the task was left to the ground component which began landing several amphibious armored
vehicles and equipment from the Fourth Fleet at the various invasion points. While the Airspace over Kalistan was being secured
by the Royal Air Force, units of the parachutist regiment as well as the Lourennais Marines Parachutist regiment unit deployed
and landed outside of Kaliburg and behind the defensive points set up by the Nationalist Militia on mainland Kalistan, where
immediate resistance by the Kalistani Nationalist Militia occurred. The Lourennais infantry regiment was able to mow down the
defense of the militia at the expense of few Lourennais casualties. Over in Gendaris, the Royal Marines were able to seize the
province's government building and were met with praise and celebration in the city. While the Royal Marine's begun to move
into Kaliburg's city limits, the Royal Air Force reported several explosions in the city of Kaliburg. The Royal Ground Forces who
landed in Ananto are in the process of heading into Kaliburg and stabilizing the city, facing little resistance as most of the nation's
militias are not active. The Royal Ground Forces are set to take Kaliburg within the next 48 hours as Port Swedes, Gendaris, and
Sulari are set to come under Lourennais control in the next 12 hours. The Royal Ministry of Defense is set to release a new update
of the invasion as soon as more information is made present. The Royal Ministry of Defense believes that the nation will be fully
under Lourennais control within the next two weeks or less since no paramount defense of the country is expected.
