Decline in Combat on Ekbu XI

Hostilites on Ekbu XI have come to a decline as of 05/18/2014 at 13:45. The conflict has already claimed at least 7 lives and seen the loss of 7 units and facilities.

Battle began 05/18/2014 at 13:46 when battle elements of Specter and Swien15 engaged the forces of Pirates. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Ekbu XI are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 2 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
