Pontesi hold Salnaeta
Despite growing unrest in Marligantos and rapid retreat in North Vinitalli, the Pontesian Imperial Armed Forces pushes the Baltusia Army to a standstill in northern frontier. Gen. Lawrence Baranov, Commander of the Pontesian Forces Gaduridos, accomplished the defence of the region with a use of landmine and trench warfare to halt the advance of a larger Baltusian army. With no possible way of pushing further south without resulting in heavy casualty, it's look like the Pontesian Imperial Armed Forces will be looking to destroy the supply line of the Baltusia and the rebel forces in Vinitalli.
Heavy Bombing of Port Athos
It came with no surprise that Port Athos, the stretegic port that supply the lifeline to the new front of Baltusia Army in Vinitalli, are facing heavy bombing from missiles and fighter-bombers of the Pontesian Imperial Armed Forces. The bombardment continue throughout the night and stop before dawn with the target concentrated around the port. It is believe that the port suffer considerable the damages, but not enough to render it useless. However, the strike will undoubtly slow the Baltusian advance in Vinitalli despite the fact that Pontesian Army continues to retreat south hoping to hold the line at Takharuun.
