Anderson's flagship attacked by drones

The Clone Navy helicopter carrier CNS West Clone Republic, which is currently the Imperial Command Ship - Admiral Anderson's floating HQ, has been attacked by dozens of Molab type drones. The ship is supposed to stay over 100km off any coastline while Anderson is in attendance but for some reason the ship had approached the coast to be within 10km of the Ramiri area along the Ailier coast.

The ship was attacked by several dozen Molab type drones. The defences of the carrier and it's two escorts were were overwhelmed. All three ships have suffered damage, two Z26 helicopters were also destroyed, one while trying to take off. Admiral Anderson was not injured though there were six fatalities and a number of injuries.

Anderson has been taken to a secret location. An investigation is currently underway as to why the carrier was bought near the coast against protocol.

Clone Naval Air Service and Clone Air Force fighters attacked the launch sites of the drones though later analysis revealed the site had already been evacuated.
