Decline in Combat on Menpel VIII
Hostilites on Menpel VIII have come to a decline as of 07/14/2014 at 13:17. The conflict has already claimed at least 4 lives and seen the loss of 4 units and facilities.
Battle began 07/14/2014 at 13:18 when battle elements of Stalker engaged the forces of Lightforger. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.
Citizens of Menpel VIII are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 4 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
