After 32minutes, hostilities have seemingly drawn to an end on Docchu VIII. The turmoil of the engagement claimed 743 lives on both sides of the line.

Early estimates report units and 5 facilities were destroyed on both sides of the fighting. Debris litters the ground and smoke fills the sky from the fires across Docchu VIII remaining from the long battle.

The combat began 05/10/2012 at 11:39 when Alastes forces clashed with Light forces. It was unclear at the start of the battle how devastating it would be on Docchu 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 148,900 jobs have been removed from the economy of Docchu VIII and 129,664 homes have been destroyed.

"The economical strain on Docchu 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.
