=== Titan Taranis Surrounded ===
[[File:CommunityNewsFeed 3.png|600px|centre]]
The star system Hyades Sector FB-N B7-6, which contains [[Thargoid Titan]] Taranis, has been surrounded by human forces.

[[Aden Tanner]], special advisor to [[Aegis]], provided the following update:

“Our pilots appear to have pushed [[Thargoid]]s out of all systems in Titan Taranis’s area of control. It’s taken a huge effort, one which should rightly be recognised as outstanding. We don’t know for certain what will happen next. But for now, the region is back in humanity’s control.”

“I strongly urge pilots to keep fighting the Thargoid fleet wherever it is encountered. We must not become complacent - the Thargoids have surprised us before, and have demonstrated the ability to respond when defeat seems inevitable. Those who fought in the [[HIP 22460]] campaign and witnessed the [[Anti-xeno superweapon|Proteus Wave]] event will testify to the dangers of assuming the war is won.”

Systems in the immediate vicinity, such as Hupang, Swahku and HR1737, have initiated repairs to starports which have been abandoned since November 3308. Titan Taranis itself remains largely resistant to conventional assault, and Hyades Sector FB-N B7-6 is still considered a Thargoid stronghold.

=== Archer Outlines Shadow Presidency Future ===
[[File:NewsImageFederalCityscape.png|600px|centre]]
Vice President [[Jerome Archer]] has discussed the recent [[Federation|Federal]] presidential election and other topics during an interview with The [[Federal Times]].

On the victory of [[President of the Federation|President-elect]] [[Felicia Winters]]:

“Winters fought a clean campaign based on issues, as I did, so one cannot fault her for that. But I think the harsh realities of governance will quickly overwhelm her liberal idealism. [[Zachary Hudson|Hudson]], whatever his critics may think of him, was never afraid to take decisive action. We’ll see if Winters can do the same.”

On Archer’s electoral policies:

“I maintain that a security-first approach is the correct one, given the many threats facing the Federation. The [[Thargoid]]s are not the only enemy of our people. Dismantling the [[Proactive Detection Bureau]], as Winters has threatened to do, will be an act of self-sabotage for our entire society.”

On his relationship with outgoing President Zachary Hudson:

“It’s been an honour to support President Hudson, from whom I have learned a great deal about the political arena. Both of us are genuine patriots with similar viewpoints. I know he will continue to serve the Federation in his own way.”

On his future political career:

“As [[Shadow President|shadow president]], it will be my duty to not only scrutinise Winters’s administration, but also restore electoral faith in the Republican Party. I’m confident that the citizens will be fully on board with our policies by the next election, if not sooner.”

In response to this interview, an editorial in the [[Federal Free Press]] said:

“Jerome Archer’s priority now is to gather Hudson loyalists under his banner, and position himself as a worthy successor. But this tactic of talking about all subjects except his own lack of responsibility for the election loss will not fool voters. Once the PDB is gone, and we see the improvements wrought by a Liberal Party administration, Archer faces a considerable challenge to avoid becoming a footnote in the Federation’s history.”

=== Spire Shutdown Confirms Thargoid Vulnerability ===
[[File:NewsImage_on_foot2.png|600px|centre]]
[[Ishmael Palin|Professor Palin]]’s biological impurity has proved effective against the [[Thargoid spire|Thargoid spire site]]s, and is capable of halting their functionality.

Independent war reporter Gus LaChappelle published an on-the-scene report of the site in the Hyades Sector ST-Q B5-5 system for his [[Interstellar Common Experience|ICE]]-cast channel Muzzle Flash:

“The eerie stillness surrounding me now is even more unnerving than when I visited this horror factory before. Bioluminescent nodules no longer pulse their sickly glow. Spires blot out the stars above, twisted towers made from solid night. Mega barnacles have ceased producing their foul byproducts. I’m walking through an alien cemetery.”

“The soldiers escorting me constantly perform pirouettes with their weapons, trigger-twitchy. But there are no black-hulled monstrosities spitting fire from the shadows or wheeling across the sky. Only rotted mineral sacs drooping from mechanical vines, and decaying chunks of necrotised metal. Even the nerve points that once triggered glandular responses have grown dull.”

Professor [[Shamus Madigan]], Federal scientific liaison to [[Aegis]], discussed these developments via [[Vox Galactica]]:

“Multiple pilots introduced Professor Palin’s contaminant into the supply lines for these spires, but it’s still remarkable how quickly it took effect. With large quantities of the contaminant in place, the Thargoids seem to have abandoned the site in Hyades Sector ST-Q B5-5. Perhaps maintenance drones were unable to keep the site viable for its purpose. Efforts are underway to repeat this success at other sites.”

“What this means for the Thargoid invasion fleets remains unclear as yet. If we are right and the Titans depend upon these biomechanical foundries, the loss of these sites may prove invaluable. But so far – though Taranis has lost control of surrounding systems – there is no evidence that the [[Thargoid Titan|motherships]] have been affected by the spire sites’ inactivity.”

=== Tionisla Materials Campaign Fails ===
[[File:Starport Cobra.png|600px|centre]]
<nowiki>*Pilots’ Federation ALERT*</nowiki>

[[Councillor]] [[Nakato Kaine]] has announced that a delivery campaign in the [[Tionisla]] system has not reached its target.

Addressing the [[Alliance Assembly]], she said:

“The purpose of this campaign was to demonstrate the core principles of the [[Alliance]]: independence, self-sufficiency and mutual support. While we received millions of units, our target quota was not filled. I believe there are important lessons to be learned here. We must not lose faith in the Alliance’s ability to remain self-sustaining in military infrastructure.”

The [[Alliance-Sirius strategic defence pact|strategic defence pact]] between the [[Alliance]] and [[Sirius Corporation]] is being subjected to an independent inquiry. A vocal minority of councillors in the Assembly are critical of their corporate partner’s inability to deliver anti-xeno ships or activities.

Sirius Corporation CEO [[Li Yong-Rui|Li Yong Rui]] offered this comment to reporters:

“Sirius Corporation’s continued efforts to supply the [[Alliance Defence Force]] with upgraded modules and resources have been hampered by the Alliance Assembly in recent months. Kaine’s rogue operation in Tionisla only demonstrates how partisan some of us have become. If the defence pact had received unconditional support, just imagine what triumphs and successes Sirius might have delivered by now.”

The Alliance Rapid-reaction Corps has confirmed that pilots who earned [[Bounty Voucher|bounty vouchers]] protecting traders can now collect their rewards from Brett High. The intended discount on the [[Alliance Challenger]], [[Alliance Chieftain|Chieftain]] and [[Alliance Crusader|Crusader]] has been cancelled due to the delivery campaign’s failure to reach its targets.
