Decline in Engagements

Hostilites in Zoalja have come to a decline as of 08/19/2012 at 11:38. The conflict has already claimed at least 10 lives and seen the loss of 1 units and facilities.

Battle began 08/19/2012 at 11:40 when battle elements of Dzentar engaged the forces of Desertfox. 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.
