Decline in Combat on Ekbu VIII

Hostilites on Ekbu VIII have come to a decline as of 06/26/2013 at 06:26. The conflict has already claimed at least 5,841 lives and seen the loss of 85 units and facilities.

Battle began 06/26/2013 at 05:23 when battle elements of JoshuaEvil and LordZero engaged the forces of Ryohnk231. Skeptics feel this decline in combat may only be temporary and warn against regarding it as a downward trend.

Citizens of Ekbu VIII are equally skeptical as the combat has already claimed countless lives of civilians and wrecked 28 facilities on both sides of the war. The individual colonial governments are anxious to begin the rebuilding process.
