Talmorian Navy Blockades Lourenne after dictator fails to negotiate!
The Talmorian blockade is now under way. The 4th and 5th fleets of the Imperial Navy lie just outside of Lournennian waters preventing merchant ships from entering or leaving Lournennian ports. Admiral Steven Millar has orders not to fire unless fired upon.
Talmorian forces have also tripled their presence at the Joint Naval Command base and all co-operative operations have officially ceased. HMS Imperium and HMS Imperator are two Imperial Class Aircraft carriers which have begun launching combat air patrols over the dovanian ocean.
However, as we are aware that blockading ports could cause suffering amongst the already starving population, the Imperial Airforce is making preparations to drop food and aid into the country whilst ships carrying vital supplies, such as food, water and medical equipment are being allowed to pass through the blockade.
Fleet operations can been seen here:
