OPERATIONS ORDER
Operation Ember, Day 3

BACKGROUND 

INDONESIAN GOVERNMENT HAS FALLEN INTO DISARRAY, CAUSED BY THE PRESSURE OF THE RUSSIAN STATE. TO UPHOLD THE LAW AND THE “PEACE” THE KREMLIN HAS SOLD SIGNIFICANT ASSETS TO THE NOW COMMUNIST INDONESIA. AFTER FEW MONTHS OF TROUBLES BRUNEI, THE SMALL ISLAND STATE, HAS ASKED NATO FOR AN INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE FORCE TO PROTECT ITS SOVEREIGNTY. AND IN RECENT WEEKS, NATO AND MILITIA FACTIONS OF INDONESIAN FORCES HAVE BEEN EXCHANGING FIRE OVER THE BORDER.

CURRENT SITUATION 

FOLLOWING ON FROM OUR AMBHIBOUS ASSAULT SUNDAY, ON THE SOUTH BORDER, FOR WHICH ENEMY FORCES WERE WELL PREPARED, USMC FORCES ARE HOLDING THE BORDER CROSSING BETWEEN INDONESIA AND MALAYSIA. FREEING UP OUR FORWARD ELEMENTS TO PUSH ON KEY INTELLIGENCE RECOVERED ON OUR 2ND DAY IN THE REGION. FULL DETAILS OF HUMINT CAN BE FOUND IN THE INTELLIGENCE BRIEFING ATTACHED TO THIS OPORD

ENEMY FORCES

IN RECENT DAYS THE ENEMY HAS BECOME HOSTILE TO ALL CIVILLIANS IN THE AREA, AS WELL AS PUTTING POWS TO WORK IN BUILDING DEFENSIVE POSITIONS TO REPEL THE ASSUAULT. WE ALSO BELIEVE THE ENEMY IS FORCING POWS TO FIGHT IN SKIRMISHS WITH MILITIA FORCES.
