Splintered Rock, Al Raqis,
The conflict between the UFS and the Orions continues. On Friday, the UFS launched an attack on a Mining platform above Splintered Rock, alongside heavy street fighting in the town. After a pitched 2 hour battle, the Orions lost their mining platform for 7 UFS Fighters shot down. Experts say that this was a crippling defeat for the Orions and that it seems that things are not turning to the favor of the UFS.
Shortly after the battle, a indecent between the USD and the Mydrion Order put a strain to the relations between the 2 factions. According to official reports, the Mydrions attacked a USM Soldier that was out on patrol with his officer. The attack happened, when the USM Trooper hurried to the crash side of the UFS Fighters to give them medical aid.
After dispatching several attackers, he managed to take cove in a nearby cave system where he was later extracted from and bought into the medical facilities. For his heroic actions, the High Command is currently considering to award him with the "Lighting Star" medal for heroic actions during the crisis.
As of now, the Military Leadership has pressed the High Council to finally take actions and step out of the neutrality, which would result in a full involvement of the USD in the ongoing conflict on Al Raqis.
How these actions will look like, is currently unknown, but one thing seems to be clear: the time of neutrality is over.

Contact with Samnium re-established.
After over 2 weeks without any communications with the Samnium station, the contact was re-established on Monday. According to official GSI reports, during a meteor shower the communications platform was hit among other areas of the station that resulted in heavy damage which prompted an evacuation. The damage of the station was so critical, that the whole station needed a replacement, which happened on the night from Sunday to Monday.
All personnel has returned back to the station and started normal operations again. Meanwhile Doctor Thomas Issac returned back to Acriborea where he was asked what happened but refused to say anything to that matter.
This marks the end of 2 weeks of uncertainty to what happened to the station and the people on-board. Its a big relief for all the relatives and friends to hear that everyone is alive and well.

Contact to Samnium Space Station lost/Spreading rumros of Attack by unkown force
Acriborea, Ruvivier System,
A few days ago, all contact to the Samnium Space Station was lost and all attempts to locate the station and call it have failed. What the cause of this is, is currently unknown. The Galactic Council has yet to make an official statement regarding the communications breakdown with the Station.
Samnium, a planet in the outer rim territories is know to be the only source of Elerium-115, a radioactive material that is used for the new generation of fusion reactors that have a much higher energy output then current models. The planet is mostly water and the orbital station was sued as a hub for commerce and trade while the mining was done by automated platforms on the surface and under water.
There have been rumors of Pirate Activity near the station but these rumors have yet to be confirmed. Other rumors say that it where a unknown alien force. This current incident seems to mirror the legendary incident at the Acturus station 15 years ago that would lead to the first Kafer War.
"The parallels are there, without doubts. It is possible that the Kafers are back, just like we all predicted it would happen sooner or later." say Gen. Joachim Schroeder of the 1st Colonial Marine Division.
"The destruction of the station would be only the first step towards a full invasion of the whole sector. If its not them, then some other foreign powers that are interested in taking the planet for themselves, the Elerium-115 would make it worth it to blow up the station and go to war to some" he adds.
There were currently a estimated 50 to 100 persons on the station when the contact broke up among them the renowned Xenobilogist Doctor Thomas Issac from the Sagan Research Institute, who was there to study the local alien life. Doctor Issac is know for his recent studies at the Al Raqian Sandworm and was the mind and host of the recent educational net show hit "Life among the Stars".
The Galactic council has now launched a investigation in this matter that will hopefully result in some answers to the pressing concerns the families and friends of the station crew have. The USD has assured its assistance in this case and hopes that together the whole incident can be cleared up.

Brooding conflict on AL Raqis between the Federation and the Orions.
Splintered Rock, Al Raqis,
Yesterday, the peace and tranquility of the Landing pads was disrupted by the sounds of weapons fire when the Myrdion Order and troops of The Federation clashed together when the Federation refused to leave the planet after the Orions had demanded it. The origin of this conflict seems to be vague, but stems from the fact that the Federation plans to increase its presence in the Mu Draconis system and the Orions declared their "benevolent protector" status over Al Raqis. Rumors say that the Orions even managed to sing treaties with the local Government,which can only mean the various house and not the Imperium.
The Orions released a statement stating that they will not allow the Federation to land on the planet and will do security checks if anyone is part of the Federation. The United Systems Military forces in this sector have been set to full alert after yesterdays clash and several ships are on its way, with the "USM Vanguard" already in place. According to reports, the 3rd Fleet is on its way, which include the Prometheus as the flagship.
Right now, the USD adopted a stance of "armed neutrality" making sure that its forces have access to the landing pad as well as ensuring the protection of the USD citizens already on the planet.
For now, peace has returned to Al Raqis, the question is, how long this peace will last.

New Record Spice Harvest.
Al Raqis, Mu Draconis Syste,
The last 3 months saw new record heights in the spice harvest, with House Tairis and the United Systems Directorate dominating the business. The Guild is pleased to report that spice production has increased to new highs over the past orbit. The early cycles of the orbital period were dominated by the spice harvesting efforts of the Khayal Alramady and Tri-V Corporation.
Several cycles into the orbis the Khayal Alramady activities started to decrease and this must be associated with the massive dust vortices and magnetic storms that were recorded over the Khayal Alramady settlement by Weather Control during this time. No further spice deposits were received after the storms subsided and few of the tribal members of Khayal Alramady have been seen since. Until further reports are received it is assmued that the city of Khayal Alramdy suffered catastrophic damage during the storms and the Khayal Alramady themselves are no longer a viable spice harvesting force.
Tri-V Corporation was also ceased its spicing operations during this orbis. The Corporation is reported to have restructured itself and it now holds major refreshment concessions on the planet Paquin.
The decline of Khayal Alramdy and Tri-V was balanced by the rise in spice harvesting by House Tairis and the United Systems Directorate. These two forces have allocated a large amount of their resources to prospecting and the orbital period ended with record highs in spice production due to their harvesting efforts.
Throughout the orbis the United Federation Starfleet Scientists also managed to secure a significant amount of spice for research purposes. The Spacing Guild and House Orion also assigned several agents to Al Raqis to ensure that their needs were met.
