Vice-President Caratore, the head of operations and Sea Urchin's deputy, has been arrested by NSIS as a spy! He is accused as being an agent of the Dino secret service SS-CINT and has been taken to a secret location. President Sea Urchin has ordered NS be bought to his highest alert status RED.
He also demanded the Dinos explain exactly what is going on. He said that this was a highly serious situation and could be considered an act of war. He said NS was not declaring war on the Dino Republic at the moment but the entire NS war machine was being prepared for "extensive operations".
The Dinos have made no official reply though Ronald is rumoured to have contacted Windscorpion privately.
