An explosion at the main electricity substation serving the centre of Hexian City has claimed 3 lives and plunged the capital of Proxima 7 (and the UNP) into darkness. The DDS (who have their own separate power station and substation at their neighbouring GHQ) were unaffected and were able to restore power to the capital within an hour. The explosion is said to have been caused by sabotage, possibly after a Bolitic cyber attack.
Much tighter bio-security measures across the DDS are restricting new cases of anthrax or gas attacks though there was a contamination reported at a DDS office on Solaris.
