Major panic has broken out in Lipnitia as there has been a bomb discovered outside the Presidential Palace in the capital of Lipnitia, Trofis, allegedly dated for being planted last week Sunday, which is suspected to have been placed there by Surpetian terrorists. Surpet is an autonomous teritorry of Lipnitia. It was founded in July 1994 by a nationalist movement called The Surpet People's Liberation Front which was founded by the Surpet people which live in the mountainous regions of northwest Lipnitia, and was later occupied by Lipnitia in September 2014. A year after the Lipnitian victory in the Insurgency in Surpet, they striked again, and started a shooting in a supermarket in former Surpetian claimed territory, killing 3 staff and 18 customers in less than 2 minutes. This is why many Lipnitians believe that Surpetians stood behind the bomb. Lipnitian sapper squad (LSdRB) disarmed the bombs and were all granted Medal of Merit.

It's been a week since headlines roared from nation to nation of a sudden find in the nation of Lipnitia. What the Klaussian government knows so far from their klaussian intelligence is what seems to be a bomb device was founded near the Lipnitian Presidential Palace. Furthermore, the bomb contained chemicals of Sirin gas which seems to be the cause of of the bomb being unable to detonate. Very poor handling of making the bomb has shown signs as well around the device. Since the findings, the Klaussian government has yet to contact their fellow nation on their findings. Most likely the reason for the government not contacting their anti-terrorism partner is because of their very high tension disputes with each other over The Surpet People's Liberation Front back in 94 when independence were being fought over. Over the years it seemed the Klaussian government toned down their support for the political party which later became a rebel group which is now known as the Lipnitian sapper squad. Although Klaussa seems to still transport tons of food supplies over to the Group which they have claimed its for humanitarian purposes. Lipnitia denies this and has countlessly accused them of smuggling lethal equipment into the mountains from the backbone of the Lipinitian country.

Later that same day, Minister of Foreign Affairs Andrii Yeliashkevych was preparing himself as PM Kostyantyn Lyubchenko tasked him on attending a meeting in Lipinita to ease any finger pointing towards the SSG( Surpet Separatist Group). Hoping as well to reassure that they will stand alongside with Lipnitia on the fight with terrorists; Sharing intel with them on what they know so far on this recent attempt of terrorism. Andrii on the other hand has expressed his doubts over the meeting as Lipnitia will guarantee stick to their blame against the SSG and not take a word from the Klaussians intel. But he will try and sort out this escaltied problem before it becomes another Black September. Which the Klaussians accused the Lipinitian of committing war crimes against the SSG in 2014.


Andrii Yeliashkevych will be arriving in Lipnitia Trofis airport in 2 days. An early notice was sent to The Lipinitian foreign of affairs about the meeting.

Surpet secedes again

For the third time in history, the separatist state of the Surpet Republic located in north-eastern Lipnitia has seceded from Lipnitian territory. In the wake of the previous war in Surpet which lasted over 20 years, the Lipnitian government has raised the alert level in the country. This is the first time it'd been so high since last year's suicide bombings in Rogovsk, also Surpet-related. After the secession in 1994, and another in 2014, Surpet has acquired a bad reputation within Lipnitian residents. Surpet has a stereotype of being overly immature, having too much money, being extremely ugly and not knowing anything about Lipnitia's history. This caricature portrays Surpetian leader, Gregor Krikoviak, according to Lipnitian satire artist, Miroslav Rebko:

Surpet has been known to not react to the many sanctions Lipntia has given it until last year, when it reacted with an invasion of a small forest area in Lipnitia which it bordered with. Threatened by this, Lipnitia invaded Surpet and thought it crushed it forever. But the beast is back, and it is now at large.

Bomb found earlier confirmed to be Surpetian

Lipnitian residents have almost expressed "See? We told you!" today, as it has been revealed that Surpet stood behind the bomb found near the Palace last Sunday. The government has eliminated all news saying bad things about Surpet, and has started to censor websites protesting against the attack. Lipnitian residents are starting to refer to this as "Surpetoganda" (combination of the words Surpet and propaganda), and disagree to this brainwashing, as they believe, activity.

The bombs would have been extremely deadly if detonated correctly, due to the presence of Sarin gas, which can kill in seconds, and is silent but deadly, as some say.

The Arrival

As Andrii Yeliashkevych arrives in Trofis airport, he receives an important call from the Minister of Defense Ihor Leonchuk. An update on the recent crisis inside Lipnitia as the Surpet republic have decided to break away from Lipnitia once again. It seems as well the government of Lipnitia has found new supplement of bombs which seriously resemble the earlier findings of a sirin terror bomb. For the news to even more worsen than thought, the supplement belonged to the Surpetian. This has just sink the meeting even more lower than before. Now Andrii Yeliashkevych's new goal was to ease any tension between the two sides hoping very dearly another war between them does not erupt once again.

Upon his arrival at the airport, he is greeted with complete anti-klaussian slogans. Accusing him and his government of supplying and supporting terrorism within their country. But of course, he shrugs this off as always as he walks towards the SUV; heads for the meeting being held inside the Lipnitian Presidential Palace.

Lipnitian officials warn you, Surpetians are very dangerous and can threaten anyone for just laying your finger on Lipnitia's affairs - this will induce great anger in them, and they could attack once more just like they did in Hralav yesterday.

This is what President Andrei Gomitriev said this morning when notified of the West Dorianese recognition of the separatist state of Surpet. He is warning the West Dorianese that if they even but lay their finger on Surpet's affairs, Surpet may counter-attack and cause harm to West Dorian. In the wake of the recent bombing at Hralav, Lipnitia will be on guard at all times in public areas which can be an easy target for terror attackers.

Lipnitian Airways is the most popular and most trusted for safety air travel branch in Lipnitia. This is only its third incident in history, and is the second one caused by something else rather than pilot error. This is because the Surpetians have looted several anti-aircraft guns from Lipnitian military bases. It was confirmed about an hour ago that Surpetians have shot down a commercial passenger plane flying from Trofis to Kelxo's Slevsko.

Pictured: A gun similar to the one used to shoot the jet down.

It has not been confirmed yet, but it is speculated that all passengers on board fell casualty to this awful attack.

"Well, well" Roque said, sitting on his comfortable chair while watching TV. The TV screen was showing the images of several bombs exploding in Liptinian territory "We got some troops deployed, but more than half of our army is ready for duty and we are already on our maximum DEFCON level" the general said to himself as he reached a paper and a pen to start to write an official message to the Liptinian government.

Hello friend from Liptinia!

Let me tell you something though, I got the right solution just for you! Our external affairs policy basically tells us to keep order in this chaotic world. How? You might say, well, by force in cases like this.
