BREAKING NEWS: Kohav issues 1st Azhara to Xsampa after impromptu skirmish sees 2 ships damaged

August 5589

Himmelshtern, North Bank - The Head of the Kohav completed a press conference 30 minutes ago informing journalists that the Beiteynuese Naval Command's Kadima III deployed in the Red Bass Ocean since last year engaged in an impromptu and unauthorised skirmish with the Xsampan navy.

According to information released by the Kohav, the 2 damaged warships include the Unterseebootabwehr Ferdinand-class BEINS Ma'arav (West) frigate specialising in anti-submarine warfare and 1 warship of the Xsampan navy. 

Reportedly, although details are classified, the Beiteynuese frigate moved further westward towards Rapa Pile as part of a quick scanning mission to ascertain whether the recent Xsampan deployment included any and what number of submarines, in order to complement military intelligence received by AllComm. Confronted with more Xsampan warships than anticipated, the mission led to a stand-off which quickly escalated on both sides.

The captain of the BEINS Ma'arav has been recalled back to Himmelshtern to face military trial for violating the military's Azhara Doctrine, as Vascanian authorities move in to assist the frigate. 

The BNC is deploying 2 additional flotillas from the Hofesh Fleet to aid the 9 (8 remaining) warships of the carrier strike group in the Red Bass Ocean, which is now on a weapons armed stance.

Kadima II currently deployed in southwest Vascania is now also on a weapons armed stance.

"This blatant hypocrisy and open hostility will not be tolerated", the Head of the Kohav concluded after confirming the 1st Azhara; "we advise the Xsampan Government to recall its navy away from the Red Bass Ocean, immediately".

A spokesperson from the Ministry of Defence did not deny the possibility that the situation may lead to a 2nd Azhara.
