Decline in Combat on Optaqu III

Hostilites on Optaqu III have come to a decline as of 01/10/2020 at 09:52. The conflict has already claimed at least 1 lives and seen the loss of 1 units and facilities.

Battle began 01/10/2020 at 09:38 when battle elements of Gedeon engaged the forces of Endstar. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Optaqu III are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 1 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
