GNN: Kusari Patrol Destroyed by Bretonian Missiles in Kyushu

At a press conference on New Tokyo evidence was presented today suggesting that a Nagumo patrol lost in the Ohka Dust Field was destroyed by Bretonian Missiles. With tensions between Kusari and Bretonia running extremely high, Kusari was quick to point the finger at Bretonia stating that the attack is the prelude to invasion. The Bretonia Government completely denies the allegations and states that the Kusari Government should not jump to conclusions. Both houses have their forces at full readiness, but appear to be taking no aggressive actions at this time.
