The State falls short for the research "race" for new technology.

116.10.24

Earlier this month the empire called out for capsuleer assistance to acquire sleeper technology to address research that was being conducted by the Sisters of EVE. The earlier rapports put the State on forefront in the "race" but the State fall short as both Amarr empire and the Minmatar republic managed to acquire more sleeper technology. This puts the State technological advancement back in its technology compared to both Amarr and the Minmtar. 

Fourth District did support the State with technology that was at their disposable but it was clearly not enough."Wish we could have done more, this will halt our technological advantage, but we will catch up soon enough" Says Demion Samenel, Diplomatic liaison for Fourth District.

Caldari Independent Navy Reserve sends capsuleers to Black Rise Region

BREAKING NEWS: HETH’S SHIP SPOTTED IN BLACK RISE

Okagaiken – Ships whose transponder callsigns match those of Tibus Heth and other Provist loyalists who'd escaped the Haatomo siege were detected in the Okagaiken system of Black Rise's Urpiken constellation. the Caldari Navy has reported. The Navy immediately scrambled a task force to intercept Heth's ship, but they were unable to locate any trace of it after a 24-hour search.
The Navy has deployed further forces to Urpiken in an effort to track down Heth, but Federal Defence Union occupation of several systems in the constellation have hampered efforts. The Navy has urged Caldari loyalists to be diligent and immediately report any sightings of Heth or ships piloted by members of the Templis Dragonaurs.

Yesterday the Diplomatic office of Fourth District received, in a cluster wide broadcast, news of former KK CEO Tibus Heth was spotted in the Black Region. The military command of CAIN did immediately send a small task force to assist in the search, again offer its assistance to the Caldari Navy. 

District News cannot get any more details on the movment of the allinace forces due to its "opsec" status. But we hope to bring you more information in the coming days.

Caldari Construction station in Haatomo solar system still under siege.

The past few days not much has changed around the corporate station of  Caldari Constructions in Haatomo, which is still under blockade by Caldari Navy. Tibus Heth still hold the station under siege with loyal members of  Templis Dragonaurs and a fleet of 70 ships.

"We still hold a open link with both the Chief Executive Panel and the Navy" says CAIN´s public relations office to Fourth District News Service.

Local communication have been intercepted several days in a row which was broadcasted on a public frequency. It included quit open dislike of the Heth regime and the current state of the situation from members of different capsuleer organisations. There were also other capsuleer open proclaimed their support towards Tibus Heth. District News also received reports of capsuleer engagement between battleship class ships around 200km from the CC station. Everything was reassured that they operated within CONCORD controlled ruled of engagements in high security space and thus did not go against any previous rules set by CONCORD. The engagement was between Heth loyalists and anti-Heth supporters. No information how many casualties have been obtained by District News, but at least one battleships was destroyed.

Other than that the situation is quite, no communication have been broadcasted from the station, and CEP and CN has not since when the blockade was issued made any statement to any news service what is happening. But much is clear that the situation is under heavy strain both from the State and from the capsuleer community. From CAIN observers intel that more and more aggressive fleet movement around the station have been spotted the last few days.

"We hope that this will have a quick resolution, but at this point much lays in the hand of former state executor Tibus Heth and his lackeys. We will of course reach out to CEP and the Navy if help is needed, and we are keeping a close eye on the situation" Commander Demion Samenel told District News.

Heth sieging Haatomo station, CAIN sends observers.

Former State executor Tibus Heth has barricaded himself inside the Caldari Constructions station around Haatomo VII. This has comes after days of development within the State after the death of Visera Yanala and Tibus Heth leaving the scene of an enquiry from the CEP. And ended with him leading a group of Templis Dragonaurs and seizing the station on the 10th of June. Initial there was no clear reason for his move and no one from the CEP or Caldari Navy could give District News any good explanations. There was just wait. When the siege entered its second day, news came from the the Navy that the situation had been "contanied" Also, news came from the Chief Executive Panel that Heth operated without the orders from the CEP. Making this a unauthorized military attempt, and is seen as an terrorist action. According to the Fourth District diplomatic office, personnel was sent out to "keep an eye on things and keep an open link to the CEP and Navy". Later on the 10th of June, two officers from Caldari Independent Navy Reserve intercepted an increasing military build up around the station. Admiral Ladel Teravada and Lieutenant Turleus told District News that the Navy had blockaded the station with capitals and made sure that no one from the terrorists left the area. According to intel, Heth and his Templis Dragonaurs have around 70 vessels inside the station, which most are capitals.

[ 2013.06.10 19:17:07 ] Tokamo Okuka > Okay. Reports confirmed. There's over 70 vessels in those hangars. Seems we had a task force out here in gravdock for deck leave.

[ 2013.06.10 19:17:18 ] Tokamo Okuka > Mostly capital classes. 

The situation was under control of the Caldari navy and CAIN was only there as an observer, as Lieutenant Turelus told District News, "we offered our support to the Navy if things would turn for the worse"

[ 2013.06.10 19:32:34 ] Turelus > Caldari Navy Forces, should you or the CEP require aid from The Fourth District please contact Admiral Trony or Commander Demion Samenel

 The blockade was successful from the Navy standpoint and a greater crisis could be avoided thanks to the CN. Local chatter that was intercepted did however contain both pro-Heth and anti-Heth support. Much that not do any good for the event at hand. Admiral Teravada did try to talk the local chatter down without greater success.

[ 2013.06.10 19:48:25 ] Ladel Teravada > My. You are a chatty bunch today aren't you. Why don't you leave the nice Navy alone so they can focus on their blockade. 

CAIN officers did nothing more than observe the situation and also received hail from the force commander of the Navy task force.

[ 2013.06.10 19:51:15 ] Tarawari Tano > Ahh, Admiral Teravada.

[ 2013.06.10 19:51:39 ] Tarawari Tano > Good to see you. request?

[ 2013.06.10 19:52:01 ] Ladel Teravada > Strike Commander Tano. The same to you. Pleasant evening I hope?  

[ 2013.06.10 19:52:16 ] Tarawari Tano > Well, apart from the recent unpleasantness, yes. 

 These action has resulted in a statement from the CEP removing Tibus Heth from the position as State Executor. CEP is calling him  “the leader of a terrorist insurgency against the Caldari State” This has made the terrorist to make a tighter grip on the station, and they have according to Navy command in system "dug them self in deeper". CAIN has still observers in system and Commander Demion Samenel has left The District to be in system if things heat up. "We have been in contact with both CEP and Caldari Navy and we have an open link if our support is needed" Demion told District News Service.

We will keep you updated.

CAIN sends Personnel to New Caldari

District News was just informed that officers of Caldari Independent Navy Reserve have traveled to New Caldari. The reason is likely related to the latest news that Admiral Yanala was offered to take here own life.  Yanala's Executive Officer has testified to this in front of a Chief Executive Panel tribunal and further stated that State Executor Tibus Heth has been using members of the Caldari Providence Directorate (Provist) to cover it up and avoid worker riots against the CPD should the news get out. Admiral Yanala had just days before been greeted as an hero due to her decision to not fire the massive "doomsday" weapon on Caldari Prime saving billions of people. What this will mean is unclear at the moment, but we will update you with any news from the State.

The Fourth District assists The Chief Executive Panel.

On the 2nd of April the CINC (Caldari Independent Navy Command) was contacted by the Navy and by CEP regarding a SuVee asset transport to Caldari Prime. According to the Navy it was military material that’s was being used in the war effort but this was contradicted by the CEP saying it was for the relief effort of those affected by the battle of Caldari Prime. 

Capsuleer pilots of Fourth District were asked by the military command of CAIN to put themselves on standby if things got out of hand. When time showed that it might be a clash between State Navy forces and corporate forces, orders was given to the District stand by fleet to move the fleet to Yashunen solar system and join up with commanders of CAIN. Initial things seemed to go uneventful until to the Navy ships that entered the system showed not and Navy ID identification number, but a Templis Dragonaurs ID, Executors Heths "personal army" and known terrorist group. They made a blockade of the station and forced the freighters of SuVee to stay docked. When a diplomatic solution couldn’t be reach, which is not surprising when it come to the Templis Draganours, orders was given to open fire on the Dragonaurs piloted Navy Raven ships. When the docking port was cleared, SuVee freighter undocked and was escorted by Fourth District and other capsuleer forces to Caldari Prime.

The Fourth District will continue its support of the Chief Executive Panel, and continue to lend its assistance to any of the corporate security forces that whishes to secure there assets. Executor Heths use of a known terrorist group shows the lack of confidence that the CEP have for the Executor. 

And later today 13th of April, Executor Tibus Heth made a public speech to a provist loyal crowd, condemning the action of Ishukone and SuVee past weeks.

Fourth District lends its assistance to the Chief Executive Panel

Late last night, a fleet from Fourth District under the command of Caldari Independent Navy Reserve left The District to Malkalen solar system, to give its support to the Chief Executive Panel, who had been contacted earlier by the Isukone Corporation for an humanitarian mission to Caldari Prime. The goal was to escort 4 Rhea freighters to the system of Luminaire, were it would be contacted and escorted at the border by the Federation Navy. 

Fourth District fleet took every precaution, and moved a fleet of 26 capsuleer pilots. Attack battle cruisers and logistics with recon ECM and warp disruptor recon ships made up the Fourth escort group. Acting Fleet Commander Nidia Masters was coordinating with other capsuleer organizations to make sure that the route was coordinated and as efficient as possible, this included also Federation capsuleer presence whom had been contacted by its government to lend its support for the escort. These were the same capsuleers that lend its support to shot down the Caldari titan last Friday. Words from the commanding officers of CAIN, the talk was short and to the point, with very little small talk. This was no pleasure cruise, it was a mission to secure that aid could come to those affected but the devastating crash of the titan. 

The escort was not without incidents, closing in midways to Luminaire, Ishukone got information of a ambush of a Goonswarm terrorist group in Uedama solar system. That triggered both Gallente and State loyal forces, scouts reported the systems gates clear, but a long waiting for Intel from Ishukone made many nervous. Finally orders came from acting Fleet Commander Nidia Masters that District fleet would head without delay to Seyllin system, and to clear out and hold that system to any cost. The rhea freighters jumped then to the gate that Fourth District forces was guarding and continued to Luminaire. In Luminaire Federation Navy took control of the freighters and continued to escort it to station. Many of the CAIN pilots did not stay for long in Federation space. Many have fought a long war with the Federation and are considered criminals due to that. Federation Navy, did take down Falcon pilot "Lord" Shrewsberry. But because of the nature of his mission to Federation controlled  space not was with hostile intent, he was released short after.   

The Caldari Independent Navy Reserve, was happy to lend it support to the Chief Executive Panel, and hopes this will foster continued good relations with the State and the CEP.   

Fourth District also thanks those capsuleer organisations that help with the effort in great extent; Ishuk-Raata Enforcment Directive, Pyre Falcone Defence Combine, Wiyrkomi Tactical Response Directive, Lai Dai Reseach Spacelane Security and others.
