Coordinator Risa reporting,
During in-system patrols earlier this afternoon, the OCS Black Cloud II detected two Gallic CCG-3a Remembrance-class Battleships (MNG|Sombre.Destin and MNG|Landerneau) engaged in combat with several Enclave battlecruisers. Taskmaster Keighley gave the order to assist the MNG against the enemy ships. After the last battlecruiser was destroyed, he asked their purpose in system. They stated that they were engaged in peacekeeping operations and claimed they had permission to be in the system. I recommend confirming this with our Crayterian allies.
Taskmaster Keighley informed them that we would be escorting them during their operations in Octavarian space, and they readily agreed. We proceeded to engage and destroy two separate enemy task forces, after which the Gallic ships returned to their own space. The Cloud is currently undergoing repairs for minor damage incurred during the battle. No personnel were killed, but several crew members were injured. They are currently receiving medical treatment and all will be able to return to duty.
One last item of note. Scans of both ships indicated the presence of Nomad-derived technology, cloaking devices in this case. In accordance with Commission procedures, I am forwarding scans of these ships for cataloging and tracking.
