CAK Declares Government Illegitimate
Militias Begin to take Action Against the Increasingly Anti Kalistan Government

CAK Minutemen Elite Armor Group "Colbert" Block Off Highways into Kaliburg 1/4/4523

The sounds of uniform marching, conservative militia marching tunes, and the chants of "Down with the Traitors, Up with Kalistan" and "Death to Blake and Kennedy" filled the air this morning in each of the major cities in Kalistan, CAK is on the warpath. After showing "continued and ever increasing inability to govern and lead", CAK officers lead by Field Marshal Douglas Montgomery have denounced the government and President as illegitimate and announced their plans to put a stop to the misdeeds of the fascist and liberal "Coalition of Hell". There is yet to be any reaction from the government, other parties, or the NCP itself, though response is no doubt imminent.

FM. Douglas Montgomery gave the following statement after his announcement:

We have sat aside for too long while the patriotic League and Liberal Democratic Party have been chewing up Kalistan. When they first attacked our economy, we reluctantly sat and watched. The numerous times they've shown their obvious disrespect toward Kalistan, its people, and its institutions, we sat by. When the Paties and Libies realized they both had the ultimate goal of destroying Kalistan and joined together to assault our nation in tandem, no reaction. But we've had enough. When you continuously tread on the bull, it is inevitable that you get the horns. Due to the Coalition of Hell's continued and ever increasing inability to govern and lead the people of Kalistan, we hereby denounce their government as illegitimate and enemies to Kalistan. We will be taking military action against the government soon, but offer amnesty to any PL or LDP member who surrender peacefully. We do not wish to shed Kalistani blood, so we request that all Kalistani constables and soldiers not take up arms in support of a government which hates them. We also request the the Peoples Revolutionary Guard and Revolutionary Socialist Militia of Kalistan as well as the NCP, SPoK, and UKWF join us in our struggle against the oppressors. We will be considering members of the National Liberal Party civilians in this struggle and offer them peace between our two organizations, this is between us and the Libies and Paties. Liberty Shall Triumph!

The reports are still early, but here is the situation in each of the Districts:

Ananto - The Minutemen Battalion has occupied Kaliburg, with loyalist pockets occupying important sections of the city. CAK troops are laying siege to Dulnerstaad and Luxon.
Neveras - CAK troops have rested control of most of the District with the assistance of Conservative and Socialist revolutionaries.
Odufaray - CAK troops are laying have siezed Kluptoon and are laying siege to Eshar, Ganderis, and Tzuhjing.
Vrassa - After occupying Vrassa City and Senvias, CAK forces were thrown out by pro government street militias and the police force. Casualtie are low, but CAK forces have ended their offensive and are currently regrouping.
Suldanor - Fierce street fighting is currently taking place in Sulari while Yoshimi is also under siege. Ulshurpest and Temmon are currently untouched by the CAK

UKWF Party Headquarters, Kaliburg:
As gunfire erupted outside, the Assembly of the UKWF voted overwhelmingly to raise their banners in revolt and deploy the People’s Revolutionary Guard alongside their CAK counterparts. When questioned, Leon Steele, reappointed as leader after his hospitalization, had this to say:

We’ve let the Fascists in the PL and the Anarchists of the LDP remain in power for far too long. It’s about damn time we put our foot down and said “Enough”.

The PRG has linked with CAK militias all over Kalistan in an effort to aid their comrades, and have lead their own, albeit cautious attacks against Vrassa City and Temmon.

Revolutionary Socialist Militia of Kalistan Issues Proclamation"We've had enough of Fascism"; Deploys Militia across the countryReports of mutiny at Bozo River
Kaliburg Ananto
April 17, 4422


Socialist Partisans take up position in Neveras City, Nevaras

Speaker of the Socialist Party of Kalistan, Georgia Van Wyck, issued a proclamation for a General Strike today, aiming to shut down the industries across the Republic and call workers out to defend workers' Rights. "We have had enough of Fascism," said the one time Premier of the Republic.  "It is time for workers to stand up for the rights of the people and do what is necessary to restore Kalistan to some semblance of normalcy.  This means we will not come back until the current government relents."

The RSMoK took the Strike one step further, and moved quickly to secure posts around Kaliburg, Sulari, Eshar and Nevaras.  A three block radius around the SP Headquarters in Kaliburg were closed off by armed militia, as well as various radio stations in the capital, food bank operations, medical facilities, and army outposts.  Additionally, it was initially unclear whether socialists in the Regular Force and the police force would heed the call of the General Strike, but clearly some have.  There was a mutiny at the barracks of Bozo River CATC, and socialist Partisans have taken over the adjacent town without a shot, but the base itself is still under Government control.  Socialists have seized the arsenal, however, and are preparing for counterattack.

The National Defense Consortium has closed its doors, and will not supply arms and ammunition to the National Government.  Their efforts to modernize the military have ground to a halt recently, as the now contested Government of Kalistan has refused to allow the Consortium the ability to begin production of weapons.  Kalistan is in a weakened state due to rampant and willful government neglect, and the militias are in far better shape training and equipment wise than the Regular military.

Events are developing quickly.  Stay tuned for more news.

****  radio broadcasts being heard across Kalistan****

Kalistanis.  the time is now for you to rise up and join your fellow citizens in defense of your Republic.  The current fascists in power are treacherous infiltrators who have arrived here in Kalistan with one purpose and one purpose only:  and that is to seize power and ruin this country.  They saw, oh yes, they saw what Kalistan had and they were not satisfied to leave our nation alone.  We have it on good authority, oh yes, that the government is composed of Imperialist thugs who seek to run our ship of state ashore so they can claim that it was always broken.  Have you seen, Comrades, the way the Fascists sought to use the legislature to take away your civil liberties?  Yes, it was the so-called Patriots who sponsored that bill, but in this context we know what that word really means...  And in all things, it was the Liberals who stood proudly and greedily by their side, waiting for the day when they could sell you and your children to their capitalist friends.  This is their plan.  Make no mistake and do not be swayed by their threats and their hateful policies.  They are not your friends.  Don the Red Banner.  Burn the Yellow.

There is only one good way to deal with the Fascist.  When the jack booted thugs under the Yellow and Black banners arrive in your town, you will know what to do.  The only way to handle these people is to meet their treachery with justice.  It is revolutionary justice.  It is the justice of fire. 

Meanwhile, we have a few messages for the underground:

The Mail is arriving late.  We repeat, the Mail is arriving Late.

The Cat is on the Branch.  we repeat:  The Cat is on the Branch.

John has a long mustache.  We repeat.  John Has a Long Mustache.

The Violins of April Wound my heart with monotonous languor.  We repeat:  The Violins of April wound my heart with monotonous languor.

The cup is on the Table.  We repeat.  The cup is ON the table.

This is all from Leftist Radio. Remember Comrades:  Do not give them an inch.  You only have your country to gain.

Bridge over River Vrassa CollapsesLocals claim they hear explosions, Police declare it "...one of the most destructive acts of vandalism"
Neveras City, Neveras
May 17, 4423


Important rail line between Vrassa and Neveras is cut in overnight Vandalism

The railroad bridge between Neveras City and Vrassa collapsed last night.  Nobody was injured in the collapse, but local residents told The Kalistani Republic that they heard what sounded like explosions.

Resident John Cheng, of Neveras City said, "Yeah, it was about 3:30 or something last night and me and my wife were woken by what sounded like cars crashing, you know, like just loud bangs.  I thought it was thunder but my wife wanted me to go check and see if our car was alright, because y'know, she heard it too.  The car was alright, I said to her, go to sleep, and she was like 'What was those bangs then?' And I said, probably some kids with fireworks."

The bridge collapsed at 3:15 am, Neveras time.  The loss of the bridge over the Vrassa River cuts a vital artery into the heart of the Mountainous district from the North.  Local authorities believe that the destruction, which has been referred to as one of the most destructive acts of vandalism in Neveras City's history, was deliberately caused.

"Well, you know, these tensions around these parts," said Police chief Tom Fernando, "I think it is giving people some bad ideas.  Its related to this fighting by the Parties.  And you know:  with so many people out of work around here, and whatnot, I imagine that a lot of people are just bored and want to cause some chaos:  If they had jobs they would be sleeping to go to work, but I guess since Privatization, there hasn't been a lot of work for the people of the District.  But this bridge it's a hell of a loss, you know?"

None of the armed factions claimed responsibility for the destruction, but similar incidents, on a much smaller scale have occurred throughout the Republic in recent days.  There were reports of downed telecommunications lines in Southern Vrassa and Ananto, a mysterious sinking of one of the ferries between Ananto and the Mainland in Port Devon, and car fires in intersections in Eshar, Kaliburg, and Sulari.  The cars themselves had all been spraypainted yellow and black.  It is unclear if those colors mean something at this point, but it marks a sharp uptick in oddly destructive occurrences across the Republic.

In other news, the Kalsie is sharply down on news of continued chaos in the Government.  Most hard hit are joint firms with foreign countries, as investors pull their money our of the joint gambling interest with Keymon and KalMD who owns a major factory in Keymon, on news of potential Keymonese intervention in the Kalistani political crisis.  Said one investor:  "Well, nothing is free.  I hope the Liberals in Keymon realize that their intervention is bad for their own business as well as ours."  The Kalsie was down 3.4 percent today, with Kalistani stocks flat and joint venture stocks bearing most of the loss.

Ministry of Defense Announces Deployment of Peacekeepers to Kalistan

May 24th, 4423
——————————————————————————————————————————————————
The Ministry of Defense has announced that it will begin sending troops to Kalistan to serve as peacekeepers while paramilitaries and the government clash in Kalistan.

The Ministry of Defense released a press statement regarding the deployment:

The situation in Kalistan is extremely dangerous and has the possibility of harming civilians. Due to this risk, we’ve decided to deploy a peacekeeping operation in Kalistan to guarantee the safety of the civilian populous.

We however must stress that this is simply a peacekeeping force. We are not taking sides in this conflict nor are we attempting to guarantee the victory of one side over the other.

Critics of the current government have called this move a violation of the Keymon Neutrality Treaty. However defenders have countered that the Keymon Defense Forces are deploying as peacekeepers, which is not a violation of the KNT. 

The Keymon Defense Forces have begun sending ships to the Antone Strait and have landed over 1,000 troops in coastal areas of Vrassa to “guarantee security in the region”.

We will continue to update you on this rapidly developing story.

Naval Fleet Heads to Kalistan As Conflict Breaks Out
Fourth Carrier Air Group To Take Up Position On Perimeter of Ananto Straits


The Vanukean Fourth Fleet - a powerful armada of carriers, cruisers, destroyers, frigates and other support vessels - is now closing in on the Ananto Straits.

June 4523 - The Vanukean Ministry of Defence has confirmed that its Fourth Fleet has departed from its position off the coast of Keymon and is now heading into international waters close to the coast of Kalistan.

The powerful carrier group was taking part in naval military exercises near to Turtle Bay (Maddog Island) but has been ordered to take up a position on the northern perimeter of the Ananto Straits - a body of water claimed as sovereign territory by Kalistan, but disputed by other nations such as Kazulia and Lourenne. 

Led by the nuclear aircraft carrier HVMS Kesprka the fleet, which is carrying a detachment of Kingdom Marines, is moving into position to support peacekeeping efforts as Kalistani government and paramilitary forces clash throughout the country. It is understood that a Keymonite peacekeeping force has already deployed in the coastal region of Vrassa District.

The Vanukean MoD said it would also carry out security and observational patrols in the area so as to report back to the World Congress regarding the extent of the conflict and to gauge whether the fighting was escalating and how it was impacting on civilians.

Militias Make Gains
CAK Secures Kaliburg and Seizes Important KRF Bases

CAK Combat Medics Provide Aid to Wounded KRF Soldier

The civil war has been raging on for months now, with no side making any noticeable gains. That, however, changed on July 4 when CAK high command announced that government had been routed from Kaliburg and that the capital city had come under the complete occupation of rebel forces. Reports indicate that the citizens of Kaliburg welcomed CAK troops with cheers and chants of "Down with the Traitors, Up with Kalistan!", "Death to Blake and Kennedy!", and "The Fascists are Captured!", but they weren't captured. President Michael Blake, Premier Haytham Kennedy, the Cabinet, and all Kalistani Deputies were no where to be found in Kaliburg, and it is unknown as to where they had fled.

The CAK Fifth and Tenth Divisions have also been making tremendous progress in Suldanor, having secured Sulari, Yoshimi, and Reynoldia (Along Reynoldia fell the Fort Vintalli, the last KRF base in Suldanor). CAK forces are now assumed to reinforce the PRG troops laying siege to Temmon in order to break out of their encirclements.
