Frelsian Civil War [IC/Confluence+Atlas]

16/09/2014 - Galean Forces Flee Valim as "Operation Blackbird" Commences & Austzelandi Government Promises Aid to Frelsia: Tonight, there have been numerous reports of Galean forces fleeing the province of Valim after taking "heavy casualties", Colonel Zdislav of the NADF stated. The decisive victory comes after a surprising outcome in what is now being called the "Austzo-Gale War". Austzelandi forces took light casualties, with under 40 soldiers killed and 198 wounded. Vehicles take even lighter casualties, though it is not known how many have been destroyed or damaged as of yet.

However, Galean forces didn't stop there. There have been floods of reports of Galean forces crossing through the Frelsian border tonight, with Galean forces capturing "two thirds of the province of Darael, which houses the Frelsian capital of Hicastu" and "the upper half of Quali, its neighbouring province." The parliament of New Austzeland has voted unanimously in support of giving military, financial, & humanitarian aid to the Republic of Frelsia, as well as operatives from the NADF Brojač Terorizam komande to train Frelsian forces, as well as airmen from the NAAF to train the Frelsian air force with the hardware being given to them, for free. The equipment being shipped to Frelsia is known to be very easy to use, and thus training the Frelsian military to use the equipment should be relatively fast.

New Austzeland has promised to not interfere with the sovereignty of Valim, though a small amount of military forces after the war ends could be stationed as a peacekeeping force. Humanitarian aid is already being dispatched to citizens affected by the war in Valim, even liberating a prison camp used by Galean forces to torture & murder the "impure", as deemed by Gale itself. Medical stations & refugee camps are being erected all around Valim for the citizens in need, and some are even being brought into New Austzeland for safeguarding & better medical attention, if needed. Along with this, about 75,000 NADF troops are being sent to Frelsia, to help defend against the Galean invasion and protect the hardware being sent.

"This merely serves as a warning to Gale, that we command a far more superior military force and are capable of suppressing any threats from Gale; wherever they may be located at" Javak stated earlier, when he addressed the nation on live television. "And for this, I deliver an ultimatum to Galean & Cyllean forces to withdraw from areas being invaded by their forces, or be punished in countless ways."

More info on the conflict as it unfolds, right here on AAN New Austzeland.

Official Communique from the Great Hayabusan Kingdom

To: Colonel Alexej Zdislav
Subject: Re: Joint Operation
Encryption: MAXIMUM

We would be very happy to participate in a joint operation against the Galeans with Austzelandi and Stasnovan troops. International level military coordination and combination of three great superpower forces is yet another step towards Gale's imminent defeat. Good luck, and godspeed.

Gale's Operation Blackbird Launched, Hayabusa Counterattacks

A Hayabusan machine gun team focuses fire on a large group of Galean infantry who rushed their position during the massive night time attack.

_{Operation Blackbird was launched by the Galean Armed Forces tonight, which was an audacious attempt to secure the entire southern portion of Quali, completely take Frelsia, and other parts of what was once a unified country. Hayabusan Royal Marines met swarms of Galean infantry and armoured squadrons with no fear, holding their positions till the last man. One of the advantages that the Hayabusan soldiers had was that the invaders of Quali had not expected to meet any resistance at all, much less such stiff resistance at that. However the men fought with everything they had, there was just too much to hold out any longer. After 2 squads had resorted to committing to a suicide charge to bomb Galean tanks from underneath, the TFC finally made the call to pull back. Hayabusa had lost control of what remained of the northern part of Quali and a quarter of the southern part as well. To finally stop the offensive once the ground forces had pulled back and established a line, multiple Hayabusan AC-130s were called in to nail the enemy with everything they had, which ultimately put a stop to the forward progress. After this catastrophic and surprising attack, TFC Gary Cameron ordered a swift counter attack on north Quali to catch the Galeans off guard and weakened, which had the potential to regain ground and maybe evem completely take back northern Quali. As you are reading this article, Hayabusan soldiers are partaking and a huge offensive, slowly but surely recapturing small towns, and pressing forward further into northern Quali. The TFC claims that if Hayabusa is able to completely retake or control most of the province, Royal Marines would be able to effectively commence offensive operations on Galean soil and give adequate protection to Hicastu and what remained of mainland Frelsia at the same time. Only time will tell if the brave soldiers of the Hayabusan Royal Army will be able to pull this ambitious operation off.}

Skies above Gale - 25 kilometres from Sadou

Two F-29A "Warrior" stealth multirole fighters flew above the morning darkness-draped Gale, both of them carrying an anti-runway penetration bomb, though also flaunting their AIM-92X air-air missiles, and also their nose-mounted GAU-12. Their stealth coating gave them a great advantage against enemy radars & heat-seeking devices. Their mission, though? Destroy the runway of the (unspecified airport name) to hinder the enemy's aircraft capabilities, and stall the arrival of Luepolan forces. But, behind the two other Austzelandi jets were two other jets of the
same model, though these ones were for escort and carried four Sidewinder missiles, instead of two.

"Pchela 1-1 to 1-2, dropping fuel. Dropping fuel, over." After that, the F-29 dropped it's fuel tanks. "Errr.. 1-2 copies last, dropping fuel. Out." The other F-29 did so too. They were halfway to their destination, and would be ready to fire upon anyone who tried to interfere with them. Though, they were both flying at the highest altitude they could, so it would be very difficult to be found.

*** *** ***

1.9 kilometres away from objective

"Uhh.. Pchela 1-1, I see the target. Just directly in front of us some kilometres away." Pchela 1-2 informed his leader.

"Roger. Lower flaps, lower altitude and prepare to bomb target. Over." After that, the two jets began to align with the runway, get to a lower altitude, and lowered their flaps to reduce speed.

"Okay, weapons hot. Engage anti-runway bombs an wait for my signal to drop. Out." The two pilots turned off the safety for their weapons, and turned a switch so that the anti-runway bomb was enabled.

"Stand by... staaaaand by..." Pchela 1-1 said. "Bombs away, bombs away!" Shortly after, the two jets released their bombs. One would hit on one end of the runway, while the other hit the next half.

"Good drop. Good drop. Returnto formation so we can RTB, over" The two jets assumed their last formation, and turned back. Their altitude was gained back and their flaps were raised back up.

Road to Werheim, Province of Quali, Freslia
396th Mechanised Division's convoy
0955 hours

The massive convoy was moving slowly. The other convoys were some miles behind them. One the spearhead, the tanks of the 5th Armored Company of the Division were protecting the front. Bukharin's squad was riding on top of one T-90SM. He smoked a cigarette, and gazed upon the beautiful area they were passing by. It's a shame he thought that the fucking Galeans will destroy all of this. His friend, Degtyarov was taking a nap next to him. They were traveling for hours. A Mi-24V, one of the 3 Mi-24Vs and 2 Ka-52s that were protecting the convoy flew above them. The loud sound that its rotors made woke up Degtyarov.

"Bloody flyboys!" he growled and moved a bit to make himelf more conforable on the tank's turret "So what time is it?"

Bukharin looked at his watch "It's almost 10. We should be at Werheim in about 2 hours"

"Ok. I hope that there will be no fighting in We-"

He was interupted by Sgt. Goryunov "Shhh!" he said and told the driver to stop. The rest of the convoy stopped too. Goryunov gave the signal and the squad jumped of the tank, with their weapons high. He pointed at a huge bush, 10-15 metres from the left side of the road. Bukharin walked slowly towards him, while aiming at the bush

"What is it?" he whispered

"I saw the bush moving" he replied "Let's go see who's in there."

The squad moved up. When they were in front the bush, Goryunov made a sudden move and went behind the bush with his gun raised. The men on the other side heard

"Oh hello" they heard Goryunov say

"No, no, live me alone" they heard another voice reply

"Come here. No! NO! Don't run" some seconds later and after some strange sounds "Gotchca!" they heard Goryunov say

Goryunov showed himself after some seconds, but he had company. A young boy, about the age of 14. Frelsian. With Goryunov grabbing him from his arm, he couldn't go anywere, regardless of how much he tried. The men on the convoy's vechicles were whatching the scene, confused. Goryunov forced him to sit down.

"So, what the fuck are you doing here? Are you alone?" asked Goryunov

The boy muttered something in Frelsian. Goryunov kneeled so he could look him straight to his eyes

"I asked you a question young man? What are you doing here, and are you alone?"

No answer

"Come on, i know you can speak.Do you want me to think that you are a GAF informer? I could shoot you just for that you know. No, no even better, have my men torture you. Cutting you slowly wi-"

The boy seemed terryfied "NO! NO! I'm alone! I was i-i was lost. J-Just don't kill or torutre me ok?"

"I wouldn't do it anyways. I'm a soldier not a monster"

"What should we do with him sarge?" asked Bukharin

Meanwhile, the tank's commander had opened his hatch and was watching what happened " Goruynov what the fuck man? The other convoys have almost reached us! Move your ass!" he shouted

"Yes yes we're coming. Where is your home boy?" asked Goruynov

"In Werheim s-sir"

"Lucky you. That's where we're heading. Bukharin, we'll take him with us, get him on the tank"

Bukharin, followed the order, and helped the boy climb on the tank. Some minutes later, the convoy started moving again

396th Mechanised Division's convoy

North of Hicastu , Province of Darael, Freslia
301st Armored Division's convoy
1013 hours

"INCOMING!" was the last word of Sgt. Drubov, commander of a T-90A of the 301st Armored Division, as his tank was blown up by a GAF Abrams that scored a lucky hit on its ammo storage compartment. The convoy of the 301st Armored Division, that spearheaded the convoys of the other units met with the advanicng GAF forces ouside a Frelsian village. The T-90As, T-90SMs as well as some variants of the T-72 and T-80 series of the 301st fomred up and clashed with GAF armor and infantry. Following them, about were 7,000 soldiers supported by APCs and IFVs. Above them, the 4 Mi-24Vs and 3 Ka-52s also attacked the enemy, with ATGMs, rocket strafing runs and cannon fire.

In a T-90SM, by the nickname of "Warbear", the crew was fighting ferosiously. The commander looked through his scope

"Target, tank, 34 degrees to the North east. Load HEAT" he said to the gunner

"Roger that. Target locked Loading HEAT rounds" replied the gunner and pressed the button so the automatic loader would load the round into the gun "Loaded"

"Fire!"

*POW*

"Target hit"

"Reload, i want to make sure that the bastard is done for"

"Loaded"

"Fire!"

*POW*

"Target destroyed"

The crew cheered

"Enemy squad moving to the east of that house, 36 degrees to the north west. Reload. Firing HMG"

The commadner fired the tanks Kord-12.7 mm at the enemy squad

"Loaded!" shouted the gunner

"Fire!"

*POW*

[Town of] Kalam — Northern Quali — GAF Front

“These Hayabusans sure are putting up a fight!” yelled a tank driver, struggling to move his M1 Abrams tank to avoid shelling. In the distance multiple Hayabusan tanks, IFVs, and the like poured into Galean-controlled territory. On one side there was a small village, and to say the least had been ruined by the fighting. To the right side lay a forest, rolling down a large hill.

“Swivel the barrel, over there!” shouted the driver once more, spotting a tank through his scope. A Hayabusan tank was rolling through the forest side. The gunman did so.

“When do I fire?” replied the gunman, his scope aimed directly on the tank's ammo storage.

For seconds nothing happened. The Hayabusan military was flying AC-130s directly over them, and they could hear the immense gunfire and shelling outside.

“3... 2... 1... FIRE!”

*POW*

Approximately six seconds passed, and the crew couldn't see what damage had been done to the Hayabusan tank. They fired another shot for “reassurance.”

[City of] Tarae'na Valim
After the attack on Vilay, 600 Resistance Fighters had died or been seriously injured. Luckily, now, as they raised the flag of Valim in the Capital City of Tarae'na, and Vilay, and pretty much every other City, Town, and Village in Valim, to cheering Native Crowds, they began recruiting. Now that there was no danger of their families being persecuted, Natives swarmed to join like flies. The numbers of the Native People's Resistance, now renamed the Native Freedom Army, swelled to 4,000. They also took over a few Galean tanks and Artillery Pieces that had been slow to go, and arrested the men operating them. The Captain commanding them was promoted by the Resistance to Major. 1,000 members stayed behind to clear out any Fascists who were left behind, while the other 3,000 marched for the border town of Gae'nacha, on the border of Valim and Gale, and mainly populated by Natives. Despite it's native population, it was handed over to Gale when the North was split. Now it was payback time.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Come on, men, don't fall behind. We are gonna liberate Natives, and we will kill any Fascists oppressing them." A Sergeant said to the 12 men in his squad. They were just on the outskirts of Gae'nacha. They had recently fought a few skirmishes with the Galean Platoon occupying Gae'Nacha on the way here, but there were no Fatal casualties on either side. Now it was time for the big battle. Yelling war-cries and shooting anything inside the town with a gun, they charged at the town.

(Plox reply, D14.)

Jordslagi-Valimi border
Jordslag, quietly and unofficially, had been leaking 'volunteers' to the Native People's Resistance to help their cousins fight off Fascists, as Jordslag once did. Now, it was time to declare war on Gale. 20,000 of the most elite Jordslagi soldiers marched over the border, having already alerted Valim to their arrival. The man in charge, Major General Ariskye Heinonen, wrote a message to the Galean Government.

"Shit, the message didn't get through." She said out load, Ulga took out her machine and typed the report again.

Code: Select all: Encoding: Standard Adampian enigma (Secret) Device: Portable machine The following is a assessment of the situation, three main factions against, only one nation supporting, another apparently said they would if things got rough. The people in the providence support the new government the soldiers are brave in the face of bad odds. Troop numbers are about 35,000 and have been advancing with one or two set backs. It is my recommendation that we provide them with arms and a few Sal Kar units with an expeditionary force to assist in the south. Although we are against three nations, and noting the lack of Fascist support.

The Rock
1:20 PM

"Well I suggest we arm them, but we got commies on the ground, they always nark on the Fascist nations." Said a adviser.

"The odds are against us." Replied another.

The Empress got up, "ever since we became a empire the odds were against us. I want to begin deployment. We can win this and gain a trade partner. And maybe we can begin a all Fascist alliance to keep our sovereignty from those commies."

"Yes madam sir." Said the whole advisory staff.

The brief meeting had ended as fast as it started, the state media was covering the story from when it first began, the empire responded as one, overwhelming support. Soon a speech was to be given.

Meanwhile...

Airforce base within Adampia

The base was busy as the eight transports loaded with supplies including munitions began to taxi, the planes were ordered to be loaded as the war began by the Empress. The large transports took to the sky under fighter escort. Although the escort would split off eventually while another transport left a few hours later with 5 Sal Kar units, 45 in total, although small, the Sal Kar were respected through Adampia, the most elite and battle hardened soldiers from the bloody wars of expansion that took place. Soon the Fascists were about to get major help.

Code: Select all: Encoded: Standard Adampian Enigma To our Fascist friends in Frelsia, also known as the Galean Provincial Guard, Soon 9 military transports will be arriving into your air space, they aren't protected so air support would be up to your nation until task force 3 arrives. But there are arms, supplies, and plenty of ammo to finish the job including 5 Sal Kar units (Special forces) to help secure the southern boarders or help in other ways until Expeditionary Fighting Unit 42 arrives. But we are most pleased with how strong your forces are, and we too were once fighting in Adampia, the Sal Kar has a legendary status in Adampia, both respected by the Empress and feared by our enemies. May we vanquish the sickness known as communism and begin a new era. Sig Heil!

ETA 4 hours to target...

"Hey, how many reds do you think are fighting?" Asked a Sal Kar soldier.

"Enough for us to be deployed, carrier force hasn't even arrived."

"So why in fucks name are going in now?"

"Because those are our damn orders, stop questioning them." Said the sergent sternly.

"Yes sir." Said the operative sheepishly.

The drone of the engines keeping the units company while the forward transports chimed in.

"Here we go boys, paradise." Said the lead pilot. "Sure hope our friends rolled out the welcome mat, could be a bit bumpy."

"Yesh, can you believe how fast we deployed?!"

"Nope, but hey, that's the point, ready at a moment's notice."

"Yeah, but I didn't even get a chance to say good bye to my folks."

"Well ya can tell 'em when we get back."

The Rock, Adampia
State TV

The crowd was massive at the Rock, almost the entire city showed up to hear their beloved Empress speak.

"Fellow sisters and brothers of the state, tonight we are entering a war, not just any war, one that will allow a people gain freedom from oppression, against communism. We were once slaves, now it's time we help liberate a nation from the filth that's consumed this world, we will spread Fascism along with our allies. We must remain vigilant in our struggle, let's show them that they will not succeed in this fight. We will vanquish our foes like how we have in the past. Together we will become more powerful by the day, I know and trust all of you including me will do our parts to make this war be a success. Tonight our transports are on their way while Task force 3 finishes preparations to leave. It's time we help our allies. Sig! (Crowd: Heil!) Sig! (Crowd: Heil) Sig! (Crowd: Heil!)"

As the Empress left the stage the crowd cheered and clapped, the speech sent a message to the citizens of Adampia, war was on the door step. The whole country was united as one, the civilians could relate to the Galean Guard and considered them brave for continuing the fight.

Kalam, Northern Quali (Rally Point V)
Apex Squadron

"BLOODY HELL! WHO'S THE SCRUB WHO SHOT US?" shouted a tank driver as an armor piercing round just barely missed the Challenger 2's ammunition supply. They were blessed by the Challenger 2's heavy armor, and the round had not completely gone through the tank and killed them all.

"Its an enemy tank, and they are preparing for another shot. They are launching HEAT rounds, so we'd better get the hell out. Our main gun is jammed as well." The observer opened the hatch and climbed out, quickly helping everyone else out, and as they were diving out of the way, the tank went up in a huge, fiery explosion. The top hatch popped off and flames bursted out of it. A BMP-3 APC drove full speed onto the scene, and deployed an anti tank squadron, and then picked up the tank crew, and sped on forward through the town. The two SMAW operators each fired a round at the tank, one hitting the gun, and another hitting the left side of tracks, sending it into a spinning motion. The team simply ran past it and pushed further into the town, right before a 105 millimeter AC-130 round slammed into the area where the tank was, engulfing the tank and its surroundings in smoke.

Meanwhile, in the streets of Kalim, APC after APC deployed squads of troops into the fight, and they were locked into large scale and bloody firefights that seemed that they would last indefinitely if someone didn't make a move. One squad, which was credited with multiple squad wipes and making significant movements up the left side of the city limits had seemingly finally met their match, as they were locked into an intense gunfight that could determine the fate of the battle. There was a large open street with a few blown up cars for cover, and buildings on each side of the street. When the squad attempted to make a quick advance through the street, a Galean machine gunner and multiple other riflement from a covered position two stories high opened fire on them, wounding 2 of the Hayabusans and killing another, all while keeping them suppressed in buildings and behind cars. What was supposed to be a small, decisive squad gunfight, turned into what would be the deciding move of the battle, as more and more Hayabusan Royal Marines poured in and more and more Galeans poured in. APCs and armoured trucks provided cover and fire support for ground soldiers, using their cannons to hit buildings that were giving a lot of fire to them. A Hayabusan machine gun team deployed on the far left side of the scene, pinning down numerous Galean positions at the same time, and told a team of about 24 men to advance. If the 24 men made it across with support of the gunner, the Galean lines would be broken and another mass advance would take place.

Allied Forces Make Devastating Blow To Gale

The Frelsian United Military, alongside Hayabusan troops, push Galean forces back far.

Frelsian troops use the snow to their advantage.

^{SHARE THIS}:

Hanna Adamsen (@HannaFT)
^{September 16, 2014 | Hicastu, Frelsia}

9/17/2014 — A victory on the front: After “stubbornly abstaining” from the war, President Reora authorized a front of 10,000 troops, along with heavy weaponry donated by the Austzelandis, to counter-attack a Galean invasion on the southern border. Alongside the Hayabusan front in the northern Qualian front, they were successfully able to “push the Galeans back” dozens of miles.

Hicastuans stayed awake to the sound of heavy artillery fire on tuesday night, as a Galean Armed Forces horiztonal front stretching the whole Frelsia bombarded the nation's south, capturing the capital of Quali and approximately two-thirds of Darael. Just miles from Hicastu, one final push on their end could do it, but strong resistance and buildup on the allied side was able to deter the Galeans from going farther. Stasnovan and Hayabusan troop arrivals were a part of this.

Earlier today, reported firefights in northern Quali between the GAF and Hayabusan forces emerged, and the Hayabusans were able to push the Galean occupiers out of Quali. In the southwest, President Reora, as stated, created a nearly province-wide front which caught the Galeans off-guard, due to the stubborn lack of military action on the Frelsian government's side. Reora's front was able to chase the Galean Armed Forces out of Darael, but some claim that multiple small Daraen towns are still under Galean control.

In other news, an Austzelandi jet convoy struck Gale's largest airport, severely damaging its runways and killing three people in the process. No word from either involved parties has been heard in regard to the bombings, but Galean civilians are in complete outrage over the loss of the three victims.

Leaders of the Native Peoples' Resistance, now renamed to the “Native Freedom Army”, have proclaimed Valim an independent state after successfully liberating the whole province from Galean occupants. They plan to write a constitution and organize a government this winter, and have called upon the Austzelandi government and military for help. Valimese infrastructure now lies in ruins due to heavy conflict in the region, but government organizers plan to fix this soon enough.

17/09/2014 - 2122 local time, Valim-Gale border, New Austzeland Ground Forces

About 30 BM-21 Grad MLRS systems sat in a horizontal line, all of them dug in trenches dug a day ago. The night sky covered the Soviet-made launchers under a thick darkness, all of them ready to fire. Though not the most accurate, the missiles launched from the BM-21 Grad were very powerful, and could certainly screw somebody's day up quickly. And that is what was going to be done.

"When the hell are we gonna begin firing? I haven't fired these in a while, quite eager to do so." One of the operators, Master Corporal Bukowski of the 7th Grad in the formation commented to the one beside him in the Ural truck.

"In about a minute. Or so. Just wait." the other thrashed back. Behind his truck, another trench stood just about 20 meters or so, with the two commanders of the formation of rocket artillery vehicles.

"SECTION ONE, PREPARE FOR ENGAGEMENT! PREPARE FOR ENGAGEMENT!" One of the commanders yelled. A few seconds afterwards, the trucks all began preparing to fire.

"SECTION ONE, FIRE FOR EFFECT! FIRE FOR EFFECT!" The commander once again shouted. As soon as he said that, the vehicles began unleashing their volley of rockets towards Galean military positions. Not only was this formation firing, but also lots of more rocket artillery systems & howitzers, in anticipation for the upcoming assault...

"Fuckin' finally."

17/09/2014 - 2124 local time, Valim-Gale border, Galean Armed Forces ‘Northwestern Brigade’

“Hit the deck!” yelled a commander, desperately rushing onto the ground. The Austzelandi offensive had begun, and only 2,000 Galean troops defended the Valim-Gale border. They were not ready nor did they have the ability to counter an oncoming assault.

All the troops rushed to the ground immediately, but it was worthless. Artillery and rocket fire from the Austzelandi assault killed hundreds of troops in just minutes; this was the cost for poor military planning, as the commanders at the Galean capital had closely packed the soldiers, and given them no heavy weaponry for support.

“It's over...” muttered a conscript, who had been forced into the Galean Armed Forces under the “Patriot Campaign”, which was the Galean government's conscription program, systemically forcing thousands of untrained, unexperienced men into the military.

The conscript had an idea; he hated the Galean government, like, a lot. He quickly made a diagonal dash out of his hiding spot and onto the battlefield, but not in an area where Austzelandi artillery fire could impact him. He intelligently curbed a ring of trees, and made his way for the Austzelandis' artillery convoy, shouting “I'm here to help! Please don't shoot!”

"God DAAAMN." One of the soldiers commented to himself.

"Wait, what the fuck? Who's that?!" He then asked himself. He could see a soldier to his left, running towards his vehicle. He could see the doors open on two of the vehicles to his right, and afterwards with men rushing out of it towards the soldier, guns raised.

They would have thought it was an Austzelandi soldier... if he was wearing the proper uniform. He wore different camouflage, used different gear, and many more mistakes were visible on his uniform.

"HANDS UP!" "ON THE GROUND!!" The four soldiers shouted. While two approached him slowly, the other two watched over them closely.

“I... I... I'm here to help.” he sobbed, raising his hands and looking at the ground. All he wanted was to be with his family again.

More rocket booming was heard as artillery fire continued to erupt. He had deserted the GAF in hope that he could help the Allied Forces win this war, a war he was helplessly dragged into.

From; Leader Anderson

I wish to you no ill will, but help from a unusual source, there is little doubt from the outside world that I rule Fantoa with a fist of steel, but I am no fan of war. Oh yes, I do not think of war as a good thing, it is an act of pure evil however though in order to aid you, I am sending our third and fifth fleet just off the shores of your nation, the ships are filled with non-weaponry aid.

Greetings Chancellor, I am Supreme Leader Anderson of Fantoa i have pondered for some time now whether or not I and my nation should come to your aid and fully support your struggle however though after some thought and consideration it will be in our best intrests in the long term to aid you with monetary aid for the tine being. However though we are sending two fleets or our navy off the coast of Frelsia as a false show of support, however when given the right opportunity we will bombard the coast and cities.

18/09/2014 - BREAKING: NADF BEGINS GROUND OFFENSIVE ON GALE: The New Austzeland Defense Forces have officially launched a ground offensive into Gale this morning, attacking from areas in central and eastern Gale, even though they bombarded Galean positions in the west. In total, there are about 300,000 NADF reservists and 110,000 National Guardsmen conducting this new offensive on Gale.

President Oltis Javak and NADF commander Colonel Zdislav ordered what people are now calling an "invasion" to stop the actions that Gale has been pulling off the past few days, such as invading their neighboring provinces and not long ago, killing a border guard in the NADF. These have been said in statements by both the president and the commander. It is not known whether New Austzeland intends to occupy Gale, or give the territory to Frelsia.

Neither Zdislav or Javak did not answer directly, however they have stated that their ultimate goal is to "put an end to these acts of warmongering, complete genocide, and to help both Austzelandi and native people in Gale" and "show Gale that such actions are not tolerable when a great military power is it's neighbor".

There have been reports of Austzelandi tanks, vehicles & ground forces crossing the border between Gale and New Austzeland, with some minor & major clashes along the now heavily militarized border. Along with this, NADF artillery & air strikes have been pounding strategic locations such as infrastructure stations, military outposts & bases, weapons factories and storage facilities, and much more. There have been numerous casualties reported already.

More info on the conflict as it unfolds, right here on AAN New Austzeland.

This has escalated to war and the official declaration is written.

Allied forces make significant progress in Frelsia

18/9/2014-Allied forces make significant progress in Frelsia: Reports from the Frelisan province of Quali came in today, stating that the joint forces of the Hayabusan Marines and the Frelsian United Military managed to route the GAF troops in the area. The GAF forces have been "pushed back" dozens of miles, eventually making them retreat from the province, according the the Frelsian Times. Meanwhile, Stasnovan troops arrived at Werheim, the capital of Quali and are now setting up a defense perimetre around the city. Patrols are searching the city streets and buildings to find any remaining GAF stragglers.

In Darael, the Allied Forces managed to hold and even push back the GAF offensive. The Allied Forces that carried out that mission included Stasnovan units, such as the 301st Armored Division. Reports with our country's losses came in this evening: 201 KIA, 289 WIA and 11 MIA. After the failure of the Galean offensive, President Reora created a nearly province-wide that caught the GAF forces by supprise, due to the FUM's nearly complete inactivity in this conflict. The FUM's counterattack managed to route the remaining Galean forces out of Darael, but there are some rumors that there are still some Galean pockets of resistance in some towns and villages in Darael.

The NADF launched an air raid against the biggest Galean airport, killing three and severly its runways and structures, something that seems to have sparked anger among the Galean populace that demand revenge for their lost compatriots. But that wasn't the NADF's only significant action. The NADF rocket artillery pounded Galean positions along the Valim-Galean border last night to as a "payment in advance" for today's massive NADF ground offensive on Gale. The Austzelandi operations includes 300,000 NADF reservists and 110,000 National Guardsmen. The scale of operation came as a suprise to analysts and militarymen alike. Col. Abramov of the 483rd Mechanised (that is currently conducting exercises 50 kms outside of Kordino, State of Vtoraya, Seldaki Province) stated: "It was a daring move for the NADF. The just came out of a Civil War and they are commiting so many troops on one of a much smaller scale."

In other news, the military leaders of the Valimian natives declared the Province to be an independent state and pleged to New Austzeland government and Military for help. Read the full article regarding this here.

In Stasnov, Premier Krasnov called for an emergency meeting of the Supreme Soviet after his arrival from Estenia, where he met Tsar Philip IV to sign an alliance between Stasnov and Estenia. Read the full article here. The Premier asked the Supreme Soviet's permission to send more troops to Frelsia. That is what he had to say: "Comrades, i'll try to keep this brief. I'm here today, to ask for your permission to send more troops to Frelsia, more specificaly the 412th Vanguard Regiment. Don't just rest on the significant progress the Allied forces have made. The Galeans will not be so easily defeated. They will fight with teeth and claws to conquer the rest of Frelsia and enforce their oppressive ideas. So i ask you for this, vote yes on this. For it may be the last chance of Frelsia. The voting starts in 15 minutes"

The results of the voting were:

Yes: 202
No: 98

The 412th Vanguard will leave Stasnov tonight via airplane. It was stated by military officials that their mission is will remain classified until furhter notice. It seems that the High Command has some special task for them, rumors say that it will be behind enemy lines operations or assassination. But nothing is certain as of yet.
