Chernarussia Politician Missing By: Ivan Vladosk The recent month of fighting in the region of Chenarus has seen an escalation of conflict akin to that of the fighting in Syria nearly two years ago, which also involved a civilian population caught between the United States and Russian forces. While not on the same scale of the Syrian conflict, which has caused hundreds of thousands of causalities and millions more displaced, this has still resulted in thousands displaced and hundreds wounded with no real understanding of how much damage has been done to infrastructure and historical sites like Devil's Castle. One of the thousands affected by this conflict is the Deputy Minister of the Interior, Ivan Gorkov, who has gone missing during fighting this week near the front lines of the conflict zone during a official visit to assess damage to infrastructure and residences. According to unconfirmed sources his personal belongings were found in a suspected DPRC hideout not far from the front lines. We'll present more info as it comes. Pictured: Ivan Gorkov

Heavy Fighting Reported Near Chernarussian Capital Soyuz News - October 22nd, 2019 Reports of heavy fighting were confirmed by Soyuz News today, along with heavy losses on both sides. It is unclear as to who started the fighting, but what was believed to be a skirmish between Chernarussian forces escalated when American troops engaged in the fighting as well. Russian peacekeepers in the area were unwilling to risk further raising tensions in the region communicated to the Americans through the de-escalation hotline that they would not retaliate, but that any further hostilities would be met in kind. It appears that this was enough to halt their aggression, as the fighting died down shortly afterwards.

The CDF claimed that only 10 of their troops were wounded, though credible sources have put their losses at over 50. There is no word from the American government on whether their troops were also injured in combat, but the recent tensions has seen a limiting in the Moore Administration’s willingness to share. After the provocation by American fighter jets last week, the eyes of the world have focused on the small nation, which has only made the recent fighting all the more worrying. Calls for retaliation have been heard on both sides, but as of yet it appears neither Russia nor the US is willing to start a shooting war.Heavy Fighting Reported Near Chernarussian Capital Attempting to somewhat defuse the current crisis, Russia again renewed its calls for a UN Peacekeeping force to take over duties in the region, but was again stifled by a joint American and British Veto at the Security Council. President Konanov has stated he is more than willing to resolve the issue of the two Chernarussian states’ legitimacy, but he has yet to hear a satisfactory assurance from the Moore Administration that the DPRC would be permitted to peacefully secede if it chose to.
