Optcap XI Begins Rebuilding

After 6minutes, hostilities have seemingly drawn to an end on Optcap XI. The turmoil of the engagement claimed 5,672 lives on both sides of the line.

Early estimates report units and 83 facilities were destroyed on both sides of the fighting. Debris litters the ground and smoke fills the sky from the fires across Optcap XI remaining from the long battle.

The combat began 06/22/2014 at 08:31 when Raven08 and Byte forces clashed with Sniv forces. It was unclear at the start of the battle how devastating it would be on Optcap XI. Humanitarian efforts dispatched from the Galactic Senate are underway.

"The sight of the destruction is amazing. It is hard to imagine the loss of life from this encounter.", one spokesperson from the GTC reported.It is reported that 139,860 jobs have been removed from the economy of Optcap XI and 70,691 homes have been destroyed.

"The economical strain on Optcap XI will be huge for quite a while. The rebuilding process will take a lot of time.", the GTC spokesperson stated.

It is still unclear whether this decline in hostilities is permanent or if it is only temporary. While relations remain strained between the warring factions, everything remains uncertain.
