Equtgu VII Begins Rebuilding

After 31minutes, hostilities have seemingly drawn to an end on Equtgu VII. The turmoil of the engagement claimed 1,926 lives on both sides of the line.

Early estimates report units and 301 facilities were destroyed on both sides of the fighting. Debris litters the ground and smoke fills the sky from the fires across Equtgu VII remaining from the long battle.

The combat began 05/19/2012 at 19:38 when Ghosage, DaBawz and Shadowbreed forces clashed with Megatron forces. It was unclear at the start of the battle how devastating it would be on Equtgu VII. 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 8,127,900 jobs have been removed from the economy of Equtgu VII and 8,678,929 homes have been destroyed.

"The economical strain on Equtgu VII 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.
