386.28 // Strikes over job losses lead to violence in seven major Vohai cities
Strikes have gripped the major industrial cities of Vohai as unrest continues to mount: mass lootings and violence sweep through the streets, as industrial protesters and sympathisers for the terrorist cell ‘the People’s Will’ continue to clash with Republic garrisons.
In a press release earlier today, the Governor of the Vohai System, Lord Xannash, was bombarded by bottles and rotten fruit as protesters began to chant ‘freedom or death’ as they stormed the podium. Another incident of a fuel explosion outside the city of Exalorest has set much of the surrounding buildings on fire, with firefighters spread too thin to effectively deal with ensuing wildfires.
Over seven have died as violence with another four-hundred injured as violence continues to grow. Talks between union leaders and business officials continue to fail due to the increasing radicalisation of the worker’s unions under the assumed pressure of the terrorist cell known as the People’s Will, and their influential leader ‘Mother Mu’la’.
With no end in sight, the Chief of State has expressed immediate worries about the increasing pressure of Vohai and its regional unrest.
