GNN: Bretonian Destroyers lost in the Manchester System

Recently, several Bretonian Destroyer patrols have suddenly lost contact and were later found destroyed in the vicinity of the Planet Wright in the Manchester System. The identity of the attacking ship or ships is currently unknown; however, the weapons fire is consistent with Liberty Battleship Missiles. A representative for the Bretonian Government had this to say at a press conference on New London:

Patrols around the planet typically encounter the occasional Molly ship but weve never had so many losses in such a short time frame. The attacks are almost militaristic in nature, very precise and quick. At this time, we are doubtful the Mollys are responsible. To help identify this currently unknown attacker, Bretonia will be increasing its border patrols in the Manchester System.

The Liberty Government condones the attacks against the Bretonian patrols and offers its deepest sympathy for the lives lost. The Liberty Government also provided Bretonia with information on the location of Liberty Battleships during the time of the attacks and had this to say at a press conference on Manhatten:

We have no intel on what forces may have attacked the patrols but we will provide Bretonia with any information that will help identify those responsible. In view of these new attacks, and the recent assaults on New London and Manhatten, we have increased our warship production to provide additional ships in order to better defend the citizens of Liberty. The number of border patrols will also be increased in the California System to prevent this unknown attacker from entering Liberty space.

Reports state there were no witnesses or survivors of the attacks and that the black boxes for the destroyed ships could not be located within any of the wreckage.
