This report presents the latest data on the security status of the galaxy's minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to experience a lockdown:

Ngaliba Blue Camorra

Laedla and Co

Potriti Gold Mafia

Apoyota Domain

Attach Federal and Co

Heike Co

Rajgonta for Equality

HIP 117399 Confederacy

HIP 113454 Empire Party

Anali Ltd

When a faction experiences a lockdown, the security rating of the system it controls temporarily increases and the system's wealth temporarily decreases. Bounty hunting activity can shorten the lockdown period.

Here are the latest factions to experience civil unrest:

Lords of Ngaliba

Potriti Gold Mafia

Inupiates Patrons of Law

Mutujiali Crew

BV Phoenicis Raiders

United Nang Ta-khian Confederacy

Opala Power Commodities

LHS 535 Silver United Ltd

Gilyadar Front

Workers of Nantariates Citizen Party

Civil unrest is the result of illegal activity. When a faction is affected by civil unrest, the standard of living in the system it controls temporarily decreases, as does the system's wealth. Combat missions and activities can bring civil unrest to an end.

This report presents the latest data on the economic health of the galaxy's minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to experience an economic boom:

Colanja Gold Power Services

Limapa Blue State Commodities

Brotherhood of LP 98-132

Uru Federal Interstellar

Avan Labour Union

Coalition of Ngaliba

Cemiess Commodities

Eravate Network

Eravate Life Services

Vanayequi Independents

Boom is usually the result of consistent trade profit and completed trade contracts. When a faction experiences a boom, the wealth of the system it controls temporarily increases and trade missions completed in the system have double the effect on influence. The faction's influence may also increase. Booms typically last until they naturally expire.

Here are the latest factions to experience an economic bust:

Confederation of Dahan

Defence Force of Baga

LTT 2622 Crimson Power Solutions

BD-13 2439 Comms Systems

Copian Xing Labour

Kokondji Jet Boys

Independent Sopdu Labour

LTT 1582 Exchange

Workers of MCC 445 Green Party

Kung Mu Progressive Party

When a faction experiences a bust, the wealth of the system it controls is temporarily reduced and the faction's influence is temporarily diminished. Trade actions do not contribute to boom while a bust is active. A bust typically has to run its course before ending.

Outspoken conspiracy theorist Ricardo Bentonio has lent his voice to the debate surrounding reports of mysterious spacecraft. And true to form, he has made some rather implausible claims.

On his programme 'Behind the Curtain', Bentonio said:

"I am in contact with an individual who has irrefutable proof that these ships are Thargoid vessels. And what's more, I have been reliably informed that the Thargoids have been exerting direct influence over human society. Everything that is happening is unfolding according to their plan. Soon, it will be too late!"

Few in the media or the world of politics deigned to respond to Bentonio's claims.

This report presents the latest data on expansion and withdrawal among the galaxy's minor factions.

Here are the latest factions to have expanded into new systems:

Branglal PLC

Natural LP 811-17 Conservatives

HIP 13269 Silver Drug Empire

HIP 114530 Guardians

Mutujiali Empire Consulate

Jaques

New Belenja Defence Party

HIP 65921 Silver Bridge Systems

Paesui Xena Empire Group

Cheneti Guardians of Tradition

Expansions occur when a minor faction reaches a sufficient level of influence and there is a populated system within striking distance. Expansion is costly, so when a faction expands, the wealth and development level of the system it controls are temporarily reduced.

Here are the latest factions in withdrawal:

The Pilots Federation

Zugen Incorporated

Heike Co

Firdaus Transport Company

Mictlan Empire Assembly

HIP 114044 Empire Group

Karsha Empire Consulate

Peng Dung Jet Creative Network

Xuanduna Imperial Society

Betel Free

Factions are considered to be in withdrawal if their level of influence within a system drops below a certain level. If the faction's influence remains low for a total of five days, the faction must leave the system entirely. If the faction manages to increase its level of influence, it remains in the system.

An unidentified individual has been found dead at a Wreaken Construction site in the COL 70 sector. The body was disfigured as a result of radiation exposure, and identification has so far not been possible. System authorities are conducting an investigation.

A representative of Wreaken Construction responded to the discovery with a statement:

"There have been several incidents of individuals trying to break into our facilities. This is an unfortunate event, but frankly the victim brought this accident on themselves. Our facilities are secured for a reason – manufacturing is a dangerous business."

Meanwhile, independent pilots have reported that Wreaken Construction sites are heavily guarded, and that approaching ships have been aggressively warned away by Wreaken-owned vessels.

This report presents the latest data on conflict among the galaxy's minor factions.

Civil wars occur when minor factions compete for control of major assets such as starports. When a faction is involved in a civil war, the standard of living, development level and security level in the system it controls are temporarily reduced. Combat activities can bring a civil war to an end.

Here are the latest factions to experience war:

Colanja Gold Power Services

G 41-14 Purple Travel Solutions

Kokary Holdings

Zelano Systems

Kokary Liberals

Wars occur when a minor faction invades a star system controlled by another minor faction. For the duration of the war, the standard of living, wealth level and security level in the disputed system are reduced. Combat activity between the two warring factions determines the outcome of the conflict. If neither faction succeeds in dominating the other, the war ends in a ceasefire.

The Alliance Council of Admirals has announced that an Alliance convoy has been attacked in the Fedmich system.

According to a statement, the convoy was transporting personnel and military equipment to a secure Alliance outpost. It is understood the attack was executed by criminals operating in Fedmich.

Most personnel were safely evacuated, but many of the ships comprising the convoy had to be abandoned. Furthermore, a number of occupied escape pods remain among the wreckage.

A spokesperson for the Council of Admirals released a statement:

"It is imperative that all personnel and material carried by this convoy be recovered as soon as possible."

"To that end, we have authorised Fedmich Electronics Partners to coordinate a rescue operation, and will gladly reward those who deliver occupied escape pods and wreckage components to Roberts Port in the Fedmich system. Combat pilots are also needed to neutralise agitators operating in Fedmich and thus ensure the safety of those recovering material from the convoy."

The operation begins on the 26th of January 3303 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

At 7.00 am tomorrow morning (GMT), the monitoring of powers' activities will go offline for a short period while the latest data is assembled. Pilots who operate for one of the powers should deliver any cargo or vouchers before this time to ensure their activities are registered.
