VICTORY!
Fighting in Vertou stops as Allied forces pound Vettarian and Ostrian forces.

Vertou had been under occupation for the past decade after Vertois forces attempted to liberate the French speaking settlers of the Ardennes border region and were eventually defeated by Hardenburgher forces. The collaborationist government had been established as a puppet government to maintain de facto control of the territory by Vettarian and Ostrian interests. However, the government was swiftly deposed after Allied forces landed to liberate the country. A provisional government has recently been formed out of elements of the former government-in-exile and anti-collaborationist politicians that had remained in the country under occupation.
Luxemburger troops have been dispatched to the border regions to oversee the withdraw of enemy forces from Vertou. A conference has also been scheduled to take place between the conflicting sides in Van Luxemburg in the coming weeks. It is believed that the conference will officially bring the conflict to a close and outline the terms of the permanent peace agreement. Monique Duclerc and the National Union have taken fire from their political opponents over both the end of hostilities and the acceptance of Luxemburger peacekeepers. Many are questioning why it took the government a decade to come to the assistance of the former Morivain colony and allowed it to be brutally occupied for that same period. Many political commentators believe that Duclerc and her party hope to use the agreement to put an end to the debates raging in Assemblée libre surrounding Morieux's role in the conflict.
