Following an extremely harrowing event in Gadalland and Aspern, Mr Henry Spiggen has announced he will leave the Bergen Summit Wednesday, 26 May 2021.
On Sunday, in the midst of Grade 7 hurricane Adelaide, a small dinghy with the coat of arms of The People's State of Precia appeared on a strip of beach at Flancekey Resort near Frybride. Inside the dinghy were three children no more than a year old.
The People's State of Precia has not been heard from in over 40 years. Whether this communication of these children was purposeful or by accident is unknown.
Mr. Spiggen has granted these children diplomatic immunity and they are currently in the Imperial Nursery in Osperfey.

An official statement regarding this issue will take place tomorrow, 25 May at 17:00.

Press Release from the OFFICE OF THE HEAD COUNCILLOR:

On Sunday, as Hurricane Adelaide reached the shores of the Southern islands, an Evacuation Operation (EO) on duty found a small dinghy with the coat of arms of the People's State of Precia. Inside the dinghy were two children no more than one year old.

There is an ongoing investigation into the communication of these children. There were no supplies with them, no other people and no letters or any indication of their origin.

Because of their young age, they have been granted Sertian Citizenship as well as diplomatic immunity and are now in the Imperial Nursery in Osperfey in good health.

Council Alcalde's Department of Crime has opened an investigation into the children and it is now ongoing. Any and all updates will be made known through these statements and press releases.

Mr. Spiggen has decided to remain in Mennrimiak for the remainder of the Bergen Climate Summit in order to create good relationships with other European Leaders, but has announced that he will authorise immediate emergency aid to repair the damage wrought by Hurricane Adelaide.

STATEMENT REGARDING THE 2 JUNE TERROR ATTACK

This afternoon at 14:34, the Hemberdale West Ard's Security Detail was activated due to an explosion on the grounds of the Customary Logistics Council Building. The explosion was caused by a pipe bomb installed under the floor outside the Council's Chamber. As a result of the explosion, Councillors Ardreth Nelly (West Olves), Bermond Fornell (West Olves), Hansel Ancombe (Osperfey) and Poya Marshind (Vernintown) are in hospital in critical condition.

The suspects were casualties in the attack, and they are confirmed to have been members of the Drarts, a Precian government-sponsored terror organistion.

Such attacks on our government, Sertian soil or our European allies will be met with the harshest of consequences. The safety and sovereignty of our sacred Six Unions remains the top priority of the Sertian Government, and no hostility will be tolerated.

As a result, Sertian forces have been mobilised and will monitor the coastlines, conducting thorough checks on those vessels leaving and entering Gadalland and Aspern. Security at airports, schools, and other public institutions will be increased.

The Government will announce further sanctions on the People's State of Precia this week, including updated guidance on Precian Refugees and will also recommend travel restrictions by other EU states to Precia as a sharp, unified condemnation of this malicious behaviour.

The terrorism threat level has also been raised from GREEN to YELLOW, indicating evidence of increased terror activity. The government urges all Sertians to remain alert. To report suspicious activity, please notify the 24/7 Terror Hotline at 191, the Housekeeping Hotline at 190, or the Crime Hotline at 192.

CURRENT THREAT LEVEL: YELLOW

Official Statement Regarding The Volcanic Eruption In The Republic of Nofoaga

--
This statement has been translated into English from Sertian
Henry Spiggen, Head Councillor

*"People of Sertia,
It was communicated to me by officials of The Republic of Nofoaga and the Sertian Union Geological Unit that a volcanic eruption has been reported in Nofoaga
At about 12 PM this afternoon officials from the Sertian Union Geological Unit spoke before the Customary Logistics Council and brought the issue before our attention. It is now my responsibility to address you and to tell you what the Geological Unit told us today.
The volcanic eruption in Nofoaga is not only dangerous in itself. It is a danger to all life on the tectonic plate Nofoaga shares with Gadalland and Aspern. Not only did the volcano erupt, but the potential for eruptions throughout Nofoaga and Gadalland and Aspern has become somewhat imminent.
My first order, regarding this threat, will be to provide all Nofoagan evacuees expedited travel to Gadalland and Aspern via plane or ferry. These vehicles will be provided on a two hour service every day for two weeks from this order. Given the information I have received by the Geological Unit, our country is in a position to allow refugees to enter. If the situation arises that we must evacuate Gadalland and Aspern, both Sertians and Nofoagans will be the top priority of Gadalland and Aspern's diplomatic discussions.
Voting in the European elections must continue as long as possible, but please remain safe and adhere to the Emergency Rules set out by Emergency Rules Act 2008.
And now, I want to offer sincere heartfelt sympathy to those affected by this brutal disaster. Let's take a moment of silence to recognise those individual struggles.

Thank you.

URGENT TOP SECRET MESSAGE

27 June, 2021

Intellingence gathered regarding the Drarts Designated Terrorist Organisation

From the Sertian Intelligence Service

Our intelligence sources in the People's State of Precia and Gadalland and Aspern have notified the Customary Logistics Council of potential threats involving the Drarts, the organisation responsible for the 2 June attack in Hemberdale. This information is shared only with leaders of EU states (including Istkalen) and EU leaders.

The People's State of Precia is not officially recognised by the Six Unions of Gadalland and Aspern as an independent state after it severed all communication with the Sertian Zone on 8 December, 1984. The state had not been heard from since then until the two unidentified Precian children were found on a resort beach. Our sources in Precia have told us that this was NOT unintentional. Rather, it was a signal to two members of the Drarts to prepare the actions for the attack the following week on 2 June.

The Precians intend to target governments they disagree with, including most EU democracies and member states, but will plan attacks on civilians to distract the government for a more ample opportunity to terrorise states' functions. It is clear that Precians already have access to classified government documents in Gadalland and Aspern, but no Top secret permissions.

Furthermore, our intelligence sources have told us that Precia is beginning to undergo efforts to increase terror activity in the European Union via the following means:

The Precian government intends to send the Drarts to EU countries to recruit members to carry out more attacks. The Drarts have intelligence sources across the EU in undisclosed locations. The Sertian government encourages all governments receiving this message to locate as quickly as possible using covert means the location of these Drart hideouts as they are a certain imminent danger.
The Precian government has sent the Drarts under different names to many EU countries, including Gadalland and Aspern, to recruit members and they will attempt to register as companies, including businesses and corporations in EU countries. They will also attempt to infiltrate existing businesses and corporations to coordinate attacks on governments.
The Precian government intends to have the Drarts interfere in power grids and other infrastructure projects across the EU within the end of this month.
The Drarts have planned at least 15 attacks across Gadalland and Aspern and the EU at undisclosed times and locations before the end of this year.

Given this intelligence information, the Sertian government urges other EU countries to take the following actions as soon as possible in order to combat this imminent threat:

Enact further vetting procedures on new and established businesses and corporations;
Increase control on immigration and travel permissions;
Increase security control in important locations;
Stop the distribution of Top Secret security clearances to new members unless fully confident they are completely trustworthy;
Locate, as soon as possible via covert means, the locations of Drart hideouts in the respective state;

The Customary Logistics Council, in a covert meeting, has approved the following actions and encourages other EU countries to follow suit, or to create a defence of their choosing:

Lengthening the processing times for travel permissions to enter Gadalland and Aspern and the processing times for registering new businesses and corporations,
Increasing security, without explanation to the public, in official government and important offices.

The Sertian Intelligence Service will continue to provide periodical updates to EU governments regarding this issue.

Gadalland and Aspern · 22 Aug 2021, 11:45

STATEMENT REGARDING THE HEAD COUNCILLOR OF THE CUSTOMARY LOGISTICS COUNCIL, MR. HENRY SPIGGEN

Approximately a month ago, it was communicated to the CLC intelligence services that there have been outstanding threats of terrorism since the 2 June attack. This threat was also communicated to the other EU Intelligence services so as not to hinder cooperation.

The terrorist organisation of concern is known as the Drarts. About a month ago they were thought to have been based solely out of the People's State of Precia, but it is now evident that they have expanded to the shores of Gadalland and Aspern.

This threat became more imminent approximately 12 days ago, when the Head Councillor, Mr. Henry Spiggen of the Customary Logistics Council, was reported missing. He has not been seen since the investigation into his disappearance began.

Based on our reports from the Terrorism Counteraction Team, it is certain and undoubtedly so that the disappearance of Mr. Spiggen and the increased activity by the Drarts are of a direct relationship. We believe that Mr. Spiggen has been taken by the Drarts.

I, Councillor Édutitalle Dína, your European Councillor, will be acting as provisional CLC Head Councillor (pHC) to ensure continued stability of Gadalland and Aspern. As your pHC I will lead our security and counterterrorism teams to seek out the sources of these horrific actions carried out by the Drarts. Mr. Spiggen will be found, but we must all do our part.

And now, people of Gadalland and Aspern, please remain vigilant. We plan to meet this threat of terrorism head-on, but we cannot do it without your help. Please contact the emergency number at 777 if you see any suspicious activity relating to the Drarts.

This is a call to arms, citizens. We must protect our country, ourselves and each other. Mr. Spiggen will be found, and we will quash this new enemy.

Thank you.

Gadalland and Aspern · 22 Aug 2021, 12:33

22 August 2021

ANNOUNCEMENT OF LOCKDOWN

People of Sertia,

Over the past few weeks, it has been my privilege to be your Head Councillor in the absence of Mr. Spiggen. I believe I can speak for all of Sertia when I say that Gadalland and Aspern is not the same without him.

Before he was kidnapped, the Head Councillor created a personal list of items that he wanted to accomplish in his time as Head Councillor. The top article, among many such as improving trade with the EU and creating more healthy immigration opportunities, upon this list was to end the threat of Drart attacks.

And that is what I am seeking to do as your Head Councillor. No words can truly express how unhappy I, and the entire Customary Logistics Council, was when we made the decision we are here to communicate to you.

There is an extreme terrorist threat in Gadalland and Aspern. As I'm sure many of you are aware, more and more security has appeared on street corners and far out in country farms. Rolling Sanctions Act 2021 was passed to attempt to hinder terrorism efforts from outside our walls. Now, though, it seems as though we were never being seiged, but instead infiltrated.

On 2 June, there was an attempt to seize the War Chamber by use of explosives.

On 5 August, 9 citizens were arrested on suspicion of using a controlled government manufactured toxin to poison government workers.

And today, three of our top intelligence officials were arrested on suspicion of being affiliated with Mr. Spiggen's disappearance. An additional thirty members of city organisations and public works officials across Gadalland and Aspern have been found to have been paid to damage and disrupt the usual safety and security of life in this country.

Our history with the Drarts goes way back, but each year they become bolder and more able. And we must disable them right here, and right now.

-pHC Dína
