A survey ship chartered to the Raegris military is reported to have been destroyed near the colony Korik, which is the furthest point in claimed Raegrean space near Utrek and IKA space. The ship was charting asteroid fields in the area when its telemetry was lost by the Raegrean military. Later on a cut-off distress signal was picked up.
The ship had been under attack by an unknown enemy when its shields failed and it suffered a main power failure (and was then presumably destroyed). The Raegris are sending a ship to investigate though a DDS ship is also in the area conducting training so may get there first.
