WAR BULLETIN #129 January 5537Jakanian Armed Forces surrender in Nişkek, situation deteriorates quicklyAfter exactly 10 years of conflict, the gridlock has come to an end. The situation has escalated quickly in the last months and can rapidly change.
In late October 5536, the regular Jakanian Army was tremendously suffering from lack of supplies, drinking water and ammunition. For this reason they surrendered the 26th of October. Regular Jakanian forces currently control only the banks of the lower Daressa River. They are under constant siege by Jamaat al-Tawba militias in the east and by troops of the self-proclaimed state of Turjakistan in the west.
Jamaat al-Tawba has captured the city of Dar i Akim, but is struggling to find international support. Some lone wolves affiliated with the group have planned
terrorist attacks in countries who have incresed their military presence in the region. Mordusia and
Beiteynu are often indicated by Jamaat has hostile foreign forces who are threatening the interests of Ahmadists in southern Majatra. Foreign fighters mostly from Kalopia and Solentia, but also from Badara, Kafuristan, Cobura, Istalia and Deltaria have been reported to have joined the militias. Since Deltaria
has forbidden people associated with the group to enter its borders, the country has been included in Jamaat al-Tawba's red list, and its militias have contucted several attacks on the Deltarian Army patrolling the border north of Mehmediye since November 5536. As Kalopia has yet to take a position of the group, no hostilities have been recorded along the Kalopian-Deltarian border.
Several NGOs, including the
Human Rights Foundation, have reported human right abuses in the two areas of the country currenlty controlled of Jamaat, called "Ahmadist State". Amputation of the hand is the penalty for theft, death is that for sodomy. In south-western Bureniye, a "moral police" would force women to cover their faces and not leave their houses unaccompanied, excapt for cases of proven necessity.
Territorial evolution of the situation in Jakania. Above: the situation in January 5536, below: the current situation. Red: Republic of Jakania, green: Ahmadist State, turquoise: Republic of Turjakistan, yellow: Nilakan Democracy, fuchsia: People's CommunitiesThe self-proclaimed state of "Nilaiki Dimokratia" has expanded quikly thanks to
supplies from Deltarian based Undergruound. The official headquarter have been moved to Nişkek, renamed Nilakoupolis and proclaimed their capitals.
The Nilakan army has discovered a mass graves a few kilometers east of Karataşı, and they have accused the Army of Turjakistan of genocide, asking the international community (especially Deltaria and Kalopia) to intervene in their favour to eradicate Turjakistan.
The government of Nilaka have entered into a non-aggression pact with the People's Units. Both organisations are considered illegitimate by the legitimate Jakanian governments. The People's Units, controlling a vast area along the coast, have been busy fighting the regular Jakanian Army, Jamaat and the Army of Turjakistan. Thier fiercest enemy however has been famine. With no food supplies coming from the interior, the mostly urban population along the coast has converted parks into vegetable gardens and abandoned buildings into greenhouses and algae or fungi farms. They call themselves "People's Communities" and although they are at peace with the Nilakans, they criticise their centralised state-like organisation, as well as the supposed privileges Kalopian, Delic, Siphinian and Majatran people have inside its governing apparatus.
As the situation deteriorates, the official government of Jakania is asking for help to the international community, both on field and also in the case of a relocation of the government in exile if Dokuz falls.
