Cross-Border Firefight Erupts Between Krauanagazan and Zuhlgani Forces
Yayyára, Krauanagaz— Tensions along the volatile Krauanagaz–Zuhlgan border have flared after a deadly incident late last night that saw Zuhlgani troops cross into Krauanagazan territory while pursuing an armed group, sparking a chaotic firefight involving both sides.
According to preliminary reports from the Krauanagazan Defense Department, the incident occurred near the Zaraki Corridor, a sparsely populated stretch of highland terrain dividing eastern Luanapríg Lupriyra Province from the southwestern Zuhlgani prefecture of Kurthez. Krauanagazan border guards stationed at Post 7A reported gunfire erupting shortly after midnight, when multiple unidentified armed individuals crossed the border, followed seconds later by a detachment of Zuhlgani soldiers in pursuit.
Witness accounts from nearby settlements describe intense automatic gunfire lasting several minutes, followed by explosions believed to be from small mortar or grenade detonations. The Defense Department said that its personnel, “engaged an unidentified armed group upon their illegal entry,” and that return fire was later directed at the Zuhlgani forces “when they advanced across the frontier without authorization.”
