Decline in Engagements

Hostilites in Verdte have come to a decline as of 06/28/2013 at 04:52. The conflict has already claimed at least 26 lives and seen the loss of 1 units and facilities.

Battle began 06/28/2013 at 04:54 when battle elements of Astrogeorge engaged the forces of HaidenCuro. 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.
