The DDS have delayed their aid and reconstruction shipment to New Arit citing the dangerous space around the planet and the fact the DDS ships would not have any escorts. However insiders say the DDS in reality need their transports for the war effort, transporting weapons and spares around the DDS. "In terms of priorities Arit comes way down the list unfortunately." a DDS officer who declined to be named.
The decision though has infuriated the Aritans who are feeling abandoned by the DDS. A senior Aritan politician has now openly said the Aritans should join the DTA instead. A Dino relief convoy is on the way and indeed should arrive at New Arit by the end of the week. The Dinos are also sending 20 Dinomarks to help defend Arit's local space.
