Edge Cutter extended to continue minesweeping mission

The Edge Cutter mini-deployment was due to end this week but will now continue into August to continue it's mine sweeping mission in Remedian space near Mila. The military exercises have ended though and the Raegris units have returned home. D162 Epsilon Eridani has gone to join the Remedian Border Protection Force as scheduled (becoming the new flagship) and L111 Pangaea has returned to Solaris to prepare for the amphibious exercise Ground Shock in September.

16 mines have now been found though not all were active. Edge Cutter commander Caratore think it will take around 2-3 weeks to conclude the mission.
