New Sparta has said it is monitoring the fast developing situation at the edge of DTA space with the Terrasaurs destroying a Voth ship (a Kalahati Tuul, incidentally a former DDS ship) and attacking a Dinomark. While it is not thought the Terrasaurs will attack NS, President Windscorpion said some prudent precautions will be made.
Six ships will depart next week to strengthen the Raegris fleet, the Raegris' astral position means they could be affected by any DTA-Terrasaur war. NS will also strengthen it's patrols along the UNP-DTA border. It is thought the same frequency of patrols will take place but with more powerful ships. A field hospital on New Jakarta, the closest UNP planet to the border with the DTA will be activated and extra supplies of military equipment prepared in nearby depots. Windy said the NS alert status will remain at AMBER.
