//SECRET//JSOC//MARSOC From: [email protected] <Clark Williams> To: [email protected] <Sean Whelan> Subject: Deployment Objective Update All Commands and Attachments are hereby notified that the primary objective for Operation Scorched has been changed. The Islamic Resistance Party of Takistan (IRPT) which is now in control of the Takistani Government & Military, has openly declared Jihad against the US. Escalating volatility in this region threatens to undermine US interests in Afghanistan and further destabilize the region. You are tasked with destabilizing the Islamic Resistance Party of Takistan and removing it from power. You are further tasked with restoring the previous regime to power or installing a new party that is friendly to US interests. Large-scale deployment of US forces to conduct COIN, stabilization or intervention operations in Takistan is not strategically viable. As such, your success is vital to ensure that Takistan does not become a larger problem on the global stage. Intelligence estimates indicate that it is extremely likely Russian forces will continue to be operating in the region with objectives that are contrary to ours. Intelligence data regarding their activities has been forwarded to your DSTs. Signed, Lieutenant Colonel C. Williams Commanding Joint Special Task Force Cobra

Takistani crisis escalates The ongoing crisis in Takistan seems to be undergoing an escalation following the involvement of the US and the use of military force to evacuate its citizens and embassy personnel that were trapped in the country following the violent coup by the extremist Islamic Resistance Party of Takistan (IRPT). The IRPT has been moving against government holdouts as well as positions held by forces loyal to the Party of Economic Rerform (PER). The PER is an amalgamation of more liberal forces in Takistan united by Fariad Mirzo, a liberal reformer who has been in and out of hiding for most of his political career. Fariad Mirzo and the PER have been officially recognized by the US and several EU member states as the legitimate government of Takistan, with the Moore administration promising both financial and military support.

In the capital city of Sa’hatra IRPT Leader Muhiddin Kabiri announced that what he calls a “US intervention” will be met with a strong response, including attacks on US assets and allies in neighboring Afghanistan. The Moore administration has yet to confirm or deny any US troops in the country officially after the evacuation of US citizens. However, a source within the Moore administration speaking on the conduction of anonymity confirmed that US forces were already in the country and conducting operations aimed at undermining the IRPT government and preventing them from destabilizing the region.
