Decline in Engagements

Hostilites in Ipsi have come to a decline as of 01/22/2016 at 05:36. The conflict has already claimed at least 240 lives and seen the loss of 20 units and facilities.

Battle began 01/22/2016 at 05:39 when battle elements of Tbleader engaged the forces of Pirates. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

The Galactic Trade Commission has begun taking advantage of the pause in combat to make large progress on clearing the debris left behind from the battles.
