Attacks by covert forces that witnesses claim ‘came out of nowhere’ have been reported on the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg, the Kremlin in Moscow, and in the Russian Home Ports of the Baltic and the Pacific Fleets.
While sketchy, the current news from St. Petersburg is the Tsar, the Tsarina, and the Tsarevich have all been killed as well as some other members of the Royal Family including other children of the Royal Household. It is not clear how many of the Royal Family are dead as others are missing and cannot be accounted for. Parts of the Winter Palace are still on fire at this time.
The attack on the Kremlin in Moscow has seen the Prime Minister, the Home Secretary, the Defence Secretary and other members of Governments also killed.
With so many members of the Royal Family and the Government murdered in the raids, it is not clear who now rules the country. There is panic and pandemonium on the streets as the Russian Army struggled to maintain order.
The attacks on the ports have lead to the sinking of a number of ships in both ports with an unknown loss of sailors lives.
One of the radio stations in Saint Petersburg was temporarily captured by the raiders where a broadcast was made by one of the Federation commandos proclaiming the futility of opposing the military might of the armies of Colonel Wolfe. Russian troops have recaptured the station and the broadcast was ended.
As yet no explanation or motive have come to light for these cowardly attacks against a neutral state.
No doubt more details of extent of the attack will emerge and we shall see how Russia plans to response to this act of aggression.
Sergi, do you have any more to add to this?
Have the Federation completely destabilised Russia on Edwardianna and does this seem to be in preparations for an attack either there or elsewhere?
Or is something else going on?
Bill,
It is far too soon to answer your questions as the situation is still unclear.
You would appreciate also that this may not be the best forum to discuss certain details due to it public nature.
However, I will endeavour to report as and when I can.
You have my condolences, Sergi.
If there is anything we can do to help please let us know.
Anabelle, thank you for your offer of help and your kind words. With regards to the offer of help, it is too early to say what help we may need at this point.
Although it is true that I have lost someone whom once was and perhaps still is dear to me due to these attacks, I would like to point out that Aleksandr being a member of Imperial House of Romanov is the one who has lost many relations due to these attacks.
I however agree with him that the time for grieving must come later, the situation demands his and my full attention. I for one will not stop in my efforts to find out who was responsible for these attacks.
Slightly confused now. I thought that “Federation rebel forces” made the attacks. Doesn’t that mean that Randol Yorke and the various Wolfes have the responsibility for having made the attacks?
A slight slip on my part. I meant to say all those who were responsible for the attacks, from the likes of Igraine Wolfe and her forces to the agents or traitors within Russia who helped set up the coordinated nature of the attacks.
