Yellasia issues visas to Zakiristani refugees

Refugees fleeing from war-torn Zakiristan as a result of the ongoing invasion have been granted asylum by the Yellasia Home Office. 15,000 visas have been issued to Zakiristanis whose homes have been destroyed or have otherwise been displaced.

Yellasia has pledged to not directly involve itself in the conflict, but has called for a quick end to the conflict and for a smooth transition as Zakiristanis migrate from the region.

The move has not been unanimously accepted by Yellasians. Immigration reform is likely to be a key issue in the upcoming election, as Low, and recently, Zakiristani refugees have been flowing into Yellasia at an increasing rate. The small Yellasian Conservative party has seen some growth in popularity this year. The 2011 census showed that approx. 10% of Yellasia is foreign born.

Here come the aid Lonbonia, saved four people

The first aid (about 40-45% of the total) came in the areas affected by the earthquake in Lonbonia.
The central base camp was located, from there will be coordinated operations.
Were established several bases dismantled, with medical centers and all essential services, which will be hosted IDPs waiting to be evacuated.
The rations are already being delivered to the population.
Additional forces are landing by air and by sea (ports and airports closest to the affected areas).
Together with local and international units, our forces for help have already begun digging and research to try to find any survivors in the rubble, 24 hours after the earthquake.
It seems that, under the rubble of a collapsed apartment, thanks to the decisive aid of a Canine Unit, were found 4 people alive.
These lucky people were immediately transported to a nearby hospital, thanks to a helicopter.

The President speaks about allegations of Eurussia and the attempted invasion of the channel

In a press conference yesterday evening in the Palace of the Parliament, the President Ezio Auditore said he was appalled by the actions of Ivania.
Ivania, remember, is currently attempting to invade the waterway.
"We can not allow a project of vital importance for the region, and especially for our businesses fall into the hands of another nation.
That channel is strategic for our country, and we have made costly investments to help build it, we can not lose it.
It is true, used to belong to a triad of Eurussia, Zakiristan and XIV, but all that did was governed by a regional law approved by us. "
These are the words of the President.
Shortly after the president returned to talk about the ongoing diplomatic crisis with Eurussia.
"We have agreed to cooperate with Eurussia with regard to the defense of the canal and aid to earthquake-stricken areas of Lonbonia.
However, the crisis continues, boycotts, now fully active, will remain indefinitely.
Eurussia rejected our compromise, which could keep the interests of both, and returned to insult our intelligence.
At this point, I should be insulting their intelligence, which apparently took a crab.
As a result of boycotts, our ports are closed to vessels Eurussia, and lines of business with that country are closed, even if we wanted to commandeer a ship belonging to them, we could not do it.
Eurussia know, however, that by his actions is blocking the investigation of intelligence, and therefore delaying a possible counter to the terrorists.
But if terrorists were to strike again (which is unlikely given the tight security), give the blame to Eurussia, considering it a nation that supports terrorism. "

Units ready to defend the Channel

The Ministry of Defence has decided to deploy a fleet to defend the passageway from a possible invasion by Ivania.
The force will be composed of a large part of the 6th Colonial Fleet (stationed in the "New European Islands").
Apparently, the ships will be:
1 aircraft carrier (the "Rome"), 2 submarines (the "Vesuvius" and "Dresden"), 4 frigates (the "Crete", the "Kiev", the "Rhine" and "Bristol"), 4 destroyers ("Paris", the "Amsterdam", the "Stromboli" and "Olympus") and two missile cruisers (the "Strasbourg" and the twin, the "Strasbourg II").
In addition there will be five support ships, six ships, logistic support and only three amphibious assault ships (normally 6, but three are engaged in rescue operations in Lonbonia).
The terrestrial component will be represented by 3,000 men and 1,550 vehicles (owned by the regiments of the Brigade Pinerolo, joint unit in which they are present all the different specialties, from infantry to the tank drivers).
This will be undertaken in the event needs to make clashes over land.
The air component will be represented by eight F-35 fighter jets, 4 aircraft Eurofighter Typhoon and 4 Tornado fighter jets.
There will also be an in-flight refueling aircraft, two C-130 support aircraft and 15 Predator drones.
The units will come from flocks of the 4th Air Brigade Colonial.
The forces are already in motion.
Currently we do not know if the government has decided to invade Zakiristan.

Tensions in Novo Canuckia have erupted into open conflict between two of the country's largest factions. Since the death of Novo Canuckia's former leader, the country has been dividing itself into various factions. Two of the largest turned to violence today, when a city used as a base for the Imperialist faction (led by Sean Sutherland, the proposed Emperor) was attacked by a group of Nationalists. The battle was waged near the town of Riba, a small fishing town. At eight o'clock (am; local time) gunfire erupted along the outside of the town. It is unclear exactly how the fighting began, but for the next ten hours reinforcements for both sides poured into the town. As news of the conflict spread, other battles broke out across the country. It is estimated that 5,000 people have died in the 14 hours since hostilities began.

The various factions have congregated across the country. The Nationalists have claimed several of the provinces along the Eastern Coast, the Imperialists (having taken the worst of the fighting) have retreated into the mountainous South and South East and occupied a number of ancient ruins in the area. The government (the Socialist faction) has maintained control over some of the major Metropolises. A capitalist faction has taken control over a number of the larger trade centers, while the rest of the country has been divided among various local alliances. All attempts made by the government to reconcile the factions thus far have failed, and the military has broken up into the various factions as well.

The United States of Europe invade Zakiristan

In government has asked to keep the news blackout on the news for reasons of national security, and in fact the news was beaten this morning.
Since yesterday evening European troops have officially invaded the east coast of Zakiristan (see map attached), taking firm control of the coast.
We do not know the number of deployed forces, we know which units have been used, we remain very general.
The fleet has surrounded the coast from invading and immediately departed naval bombardment (using missiles fired from ships and submarines) aimed to destroy the enemy's military capabilities and infrastructure.
As a first step, already completed, have been affected ports, military or not (we start with 10 ports civilians and 5 soldiers affected), eliminating the enemy fleet before they moved (we start with 40-50 ships destroyed, but the data are not accurate).
The ports have not been razed to the ground, because the ground forces they subsequently conquered and transformed into base camps.
As a second phase, already completed, have been affected airports within 90 km from the coast, eliminating the enemy air force on the ground.
Some airports (about 20, about 27 total, imprecise estimates) are still viable, so the forces are landed behind enemy lines.
As a third step, still in progress but almost complete, we are hitting the infrastructure (power plants, power lines, radar stations, roads and railways, etc..) To eliminate the movement capability of the enemy.
As a fourth step, still in progress but almost complete, we are bombing military targets all enemies, especially the importance of logistics goals, such as military bases and depots, as well as anti-aircraft and anti-missile systems.
All the steps are taking place at the same time, putting the enemy in serious trouble.
The ground forces are already landed (with landing or directly from the ports conquered) and advance rapidly, encountering resistance appreciably.
It is estimated that up to now, about 30 European soldiers have lost their lives, the enemy losses are heavy.
It seems that civilians are helping Europeans in every way possible.
At the back the fields were created for civilians, and are delivering basic necessities.
