Trade Meeting Attacked

Xaniqall

Today in Xaniqall, a group of foreign capitalist interest representatives and tribal leaders met to discuss the recent forced removal of foreign industry. About an hour into the meeting, 15 masked men stormed the meeting and took all the delegates hostage. Xaniq milita forces were quickly deployed and surrounded the building. After a 5 hour stand off, a cover ops team was sent in to take out the terrorists. A fire fight ensued, and all the hostages, as well as the covert ops team, were killed when the terrorists detonated a large amount of semtex they had brought in with them. Estimated dead is about 100.

A communique released later that day lambasted the tribal leaders for cooperating with neocolonialists and credited the attack to the Al-Fatah Movement, a group which has become increasingly active in recent months.
