Delegates Dead, Military On Alert

It has been 3 days since President Lyons reveled that the Hindopian delegation to Borucistan had never arrived at the Hindopian embassy there and was registered as missing. The President has now released a video statement to the public via his official presidential website stating that the Centralized National Intelligence Service (CNIS) had confirmed the delegates were kidnapped by Borucish government agents and tortured before they were executed.

"It has been confirmed by Hindopian government agents that the delegation sent to Borucistan for negotiations have been executed by members of the Borucish Military."

"It angers me greatly that the once friendly nation of Borucistan would do this to us just as we are on the road to repairing relations."

He went on to state that a very secret coup had taken place in the hours after Hindopia and Borucistan both agreed to hold negotiations on the sensitive subject of missile test sites.

"Mere hours after President Malazar announced his decision to allow negotiation talks to begin, military and political leaders moved against the longstanding President and decapitated his support circle. Left with no trusted advisors or supporters the President was transformed into a puppet leader for the new secret regime."

According to the President, the deaths of the delegates were ordered not by the Malazar but by his military masters. He has now ordered the entire military to DEFCON 3 and has mobilised the 7th Fleet to the shores of eastern Hindopia.

"It is certainly a dangerous situation we now find ourselves in but I have complete faith in the men and women of our armed forces to protect us if the need arises."
