Acocco VIII Begins Rebuilding

After 41minutes, hostilities have seemingly drawn to an end on Acocco VIII. The turmoil of the engagement claimed 38 lives on both sides of the line.

Early estimates report units and 38 facilities were destroyed on both sides of the fighting. Debris litters the ground and smoke fills the sky from the fires across Acocco VIII remaining from the long battle.

The combat began 10/07/2015 at 10:54 when Amerlain forces clashed with Pirates forces. It was unclear at the start of the battle how devastating it would be on Acocco VIII. 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 877,119 jobs have been removed from the economy of Acocco VIII and 609,120 homes have been destroyed.

"The economical strain on Acocco VIII 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.
