WAR in Ekbu II!

Hostilities continue on Ekbu II where forces have been engaged since 06/13/2015 at 01:56 in a massive conflict for control. The death toll has reached 245 dead and numerous more wounded on both sides of this horrific engagement.

The battle, which includes forces from Pirates fighting against elements of GlidoU, has seen 14 units destroyed and over 11 facilities left in ruin. The GTC has predicted a massive strain on the economy of Ekbu II due to this conflict. However, sources within the GTC indicate that all trade routes are still intact.

Citizens of Ekbu II are feeling the pressure of the clash as 369,326 jobs have been removed from the economy due to damaged facilities and 111,521 homes have been demolished. Some citizens have begun the process of fleeing Ekbu II while others are determined to weather the onslaught. One citizen stated, "This is our home. I was here when we made planetfall and saw the first cornerstones of this colony established."
