ZELON WAVE EXCHANGE DESTROYED, CHANCAI CUT OFF FROM OUTSIDE ASSISTANCE

BY Editor-in-chief SISKINE TOOV

Reports have just reached us that the Zelon Wave Exchange has been destroyed. An attack by Ki-Ki forces smashed the centre to pieces, thereby cutting off all off-world communication and throwing the evacuation effort into chaos.  Already many starships have been lost or damaged, and in a holding action, local militia have been setting up `beacon ships', vehicles placed in specific locations  to direct the fleeing ships up into atmosphere and away.

As we understand, Ki-Ki forces and atmosphere vehicles are grouping to stop the evacuation efforts and stem the swift flow of ships from leaving.  Our insiders understand that the Ki-Ki intend to use the 15 million inhabitants of Chancai as hostages and slave labourers.

In further news, all stations utilising the Zelon Wave Exchange have diverted to the local Zelon frequency of 100.8, and broadcasts are to restart within the hour.  Arnee Kwarnee in the Afternoon has now been delayed by 20 minutes and will star at ten minutes to the hour.
