In the skies over the Likatonia/Lodamun border, MiG-31 and SU-30 interceptor jets patrol the border region. In the waters north of Sorbanika and Rapula, Typhoon Class Nuclear Submarines from the Hukatai Submarine Fleet are stealthily patrolling the waters, prepared for battle. On the Likatonia/Lodamun border, the Axis Mundi division of the Likatonian military are preparing for action, alongside the elite Lodamun foreign legion. The elite LSF (Likatonian Special Forces) teamed with the LSS (Likatonian Secret Service) have been authorised at the highest level to conduct covert operations inside the Rapula border to safely evacuate Likatonian citizens in danger
So far there are now over 25,000 Likatonian-Rapulan refugees in safety in the Likatonian City of Tiorovsk, near the border with Lodamun.
General Bobby Johnson and his militia of Likontian-Rapulans are determined to re-enter Rapula. They are hardened, experienced and determined. The Likatonian Minister for Defence James Turner has stated that Likatonia “cannot stop General Bobby as we are not in command of the Likatonian/Rapulan militia. They are following orders from the Likatonian/Rapulan Government in Exile.”
However the First Advocate Alec Reynolds confirmed that the Likatonia has heavily armed the militia. His Excellency the First Advocate. “I have spoken to the honourable Emissary and he stated that it would be ethically right to arm the militia. So we have armed General Bobby with the very best in Likatonian weaponry to give them the best possible chance of success with their endeavours in Rapula.”
Latest reports from the disputed border suggest General Bobby his preparing to enter the region.
General Charles Burns has been put in charge of all Likatonian military operations in the Likatonina/Lodamun region. He will report directly to the Minister for Defence.
Signed,
the Government of the Axis Mundi Likatonian Res Publica
