incoming crisis report
transmission from Captain Hyperwave of the SF

As of now, an official quarantine will not be put in place by Cambridge. However, it is very difficult to get on the planet itself. Planet Cambridge is only allowing those who are wearing extremely advanced life support and protective gear onto the planet. In addition, Cambridge has restricted access to all but those providing the relief. The press has already quoted Queen Karina on this Incident.

"We have decided that issuing a complete quarantine on the planet would result in severe problems. Those down there need medical help, and since many of the large cities were hit, the large hospitals are no longer functioning at full capacity. We believe that by restricting access and having requirements to enter the system and planet, we can save millions of people from death. It is expected that these restrictions will hopefully encourage humanitarian relief from the other houses."

Agencies from within Bretonia have already moved in to assess damage, and to help the current population there. Others received calls from Battleship Sierra that a crisis occurred in Cambridge, and they needed immediate assistance. Several organizations responded including a very unexpected response from Kusari. The Kusari Disaster Relief Organization - the largest in Sirius - has sent out 15 relief ships for Cambridge. They are expected to arrive within the week with food, medical supplies, ice, and ships loaded with police officers to prevent looting, firefighters and first responders to keep the city together, and hopefully alive.

Bretonia itself has already sent out three extremely advanced medical ships which will serve as the highest standard of medical and trauma care off planet-side. It is expected that many will die, but with medical ships from Bretonia and other houses, many can survive their injuries. All medical personnel deployed planet-side and on the ships will be required to wear protective gear in order to avoid any strains of any disease, virus, infection, etc.

Firefighters are on the planet now, and are attempting to douse the flames created by the Nomad vessel. However, a strange substance prevents many of the fires to be doused, and other methods must be utilized. Cambridge is in a severe crisis state, with flooding, fires, gases, and other dangerous things. CRI is attempting to find a way to eliminate these, but due to the fact that many of the substances are new to humankind, it is difficult. Samples from the ship show, however, a way to do it, and all members of CRI are working on it.

Medical researchers are coming from all over to help combat these problems, and due to the same samples as mentioned above, it is thought that the Nomads has a very high standard of medical care. If CRI can get a hold of similar things like this, many worries may be over for billions throughout Sirius.

Until now, however, we must continue to make sure all can make it on Planet Cambridge. Those in the system and on the planet are not allowed to leave unless everything is quarantined, but this is expected to help save millions of people.

Right now, all Bretonia is asking for is major humanitarian relief, and potentially money to help this. They are also asking for research funds from the houses for CRI for the development of how to put out the flames, not just contain them, and for the development of lifesaving, drugs or medical techniques that can save the human race.

Any further development of the stories will be released later, but this is all that the SF can issue for now due to confidentiality issues in the fight against the Nomads.
