The Solaris II class ship Ma lska of the New Arit fleet has been destroyed by the ABBOs near to the border of Aritan space and the Rim Worlds. It is now thought a major ABBO war fleet is approaching New Arit. The Aritans are assembling as many ships as they have available (but it will be a little less than half of their available fleet due to ships being elsewhere or in maintenance). The DDS will be unable to get reinforcements to New Arit until after the ABBOs arrive (estimated at early tomorrow).
The Aritan Army has been put on full alert and the Aritans are trying to evacuate the centre of their capital city in case the ABBOs launch an orbital attack or even an invasion.
