This press message was released by the Government of the Telamon Commonwealth.
The Telamonian government regrets to announce that whilst releasing our last statement, the attack that we had feared happened. Our intelligence was too late to prevent it and to prevent casualties. Our information would confirm the reports of Kanjor that 36 were killed and 54 injured when a cruise missile hit our Foreign Ministry. Many more were saved due to the heroic efforts of our emergency services and all Cabinet members are accounted for having been evacuated before the strike.
The government would like to extend its condolences to the families of the victims of this cowardly and appalling attack. We have stepped up security around the capital and at our borders which will remain closed for the forseeable future. Our military is also on its highest state of alert.
Telamonian forces are currently tracking the Kanjorian military submarine which is believed to have fired the missiles and have instructions to destroy it when found. We will not tolerate attacks such as this upon our soil especially when it deliberatly targets innocent civilians and we will take action against those who carried out this act and so we call upon the Kanjor Republic to hand over the leaders of the Far Right Freedom Party to face trial in Telamon.Signed,
the Government of the Telamon Commonwealth
