Threat Assessment: Klingon advancements have been mitigated this week, likely because of the loss of their armada at the Battle of Starbase 381. However, we have seen an increased threat to civilian vessels in the Beta Ursae sector block. Also, Borg incursions have increased along the Task Force's northern border. It is anticipated that as system patrols and convoy escorts are increased the loss of civilian craft will decrease but the over all incidents will increase as the threats respond to the larger Starfleet forces with their own increased patrols.

One minor incident involving True Way extremist was handled by system patrols. The most significant and new threat this week was the Romulan Empire Tal Shiar threat that the USS Moirai encountered in the Tew Dewa sector. The threat was significant and extra Task Force vessels had to be dispatched to assist the Moirai.

On a threat related note, intel teams are closing in on the otherwise forgotten former Commodore of the Task Force, R'zo-vek. It's possible further intel could lead to significant developments in the story.

General Fleet Operations

- In keeping with planned space dock availability schedules, the R.R.W. Crateris has been recalled to New Romulus for retrofitting . Subcommander E'Matclazon has transferred to the R.R.W. Raptor.

- The fugitive R'zo-vek has been apprehended and is in transit to Outpost Argo, held in custody by the U.S.S. Albion. The report on this operations has been redacted, but its format can be found: HERE.

- After the unfortunate destruction of the U.S.S. Somerset at the hands of the Breen, few survivors escaped, and fewer asked to be reassigned.

- Subcommander E'Matclazon has returned to the starbase via New Romulus after returning the Raptor in order to retake command of the retro fitted D'deridex Crateris.

- The ISS Raven, apparently a vessel belonging to 'Captain' Penny BlackKnife, is docked at the base. BlackKnife claims she is awaiting a transport of supplies and a Federation representative who will take charge of a number of Refugees.

- Subcommander E'Matclazon has been ordered by the Republic to undertake operations against the Tal Shiar in the Alpha Centauri and Tau Dewa systems.

- The U.S.S. October received a distress call at 22:00 hours and responded to the call. The U.S.S. October diverted towards Drozana station, where a Ferengi vessel had been caught in a light skirmish. The situation is on hand, and diplomatic talks are now occurring onboard the October to reach a conclusion.

- The R.R.W. Raptor has returned to the Argo Starbase in order to take on supplies. She departs again in two days.

Scientific and Medical Operations

- Petty Officer Nethali Aster has been issued a medical discharge from Starfleet service.

Starbase and Facility Operations

- The USS Artemis has entered drydock facilities at Starbase Argo after a prolonged conflict with the Borg. The crew will be spending the next seven days on shore leave aboard Starbase Argo while the ship undergoes repairs.

- Construction operations have begun on expansions to Outpost Argo. Engineering Captain Eli Altais is reportedly swamped with duties as a result.

- Shipyard Construction Facilities have completed refit work on the U.S.S. Albion's Aquarius Destroyer, the Hibernia. The craft can now operate for extended periods and on with minimal support as per normal craft of the same class.

Threat Assessment: There are unsubstantiated intelligence reports indicating the possible return of the Klingon General and former leader of Strike Force Kargas, Wrot'Ka, to the K.D.F. This could indicate organizational and leadership changes in the Klingon forces immediately opposing our forces along the Klingon-Federation border. Operations have seen an increase in both Breen and Cardassian True Way activity to our sector's flank and remote regions. Finally, the recovery of the fugitive R'zo-vek may indicate recent changes to criminal elements in the region. It is unlikely his capture would rate a retaliation response from those elements as intel indicates they did not like him either.

Several Task Force ships have, however, been involved with support to Starfleet ops to counter the crystalline entity threat. We expect this to continue for at least another week, if not longer.

- The Kebrell colony inauguration has been temporarily postponed, pending thorough sweeps of the discovered Syndicate compounds, as well as recovery of the Kebrell's colonial command liaison and administrator.

Scientific and Medical Operations

- The adjunct medical vessel U.S.S. Kindred transferred eighteen officers in critical condition to the Outpost's sickbay. The Kindred remained in orbit for another six hours while undergoing decontamination procedures.

Starbase and Facility Operations

- The USS Caledonian has arrived at the starbase with further station parts. The USS Menway will arrive by 0300 station time, to complete delivery.

- Former Task Force Argo commodore R'zo-vek has returned to Outpost Argo. Details of his court martial have not been released, however he has notably been reduced in rank to Captain.

Threat Assessment: Enemy activity this week has been associated with Cardassian Separatist and Orion Syndicate, assisted by the Breen Conglomerate. Klingon activity has been lower than normal over the past month. With the increasing dillithium mining operations in the Beta Ursae sector, its likely Breen and Cardassian activity will remain high.

A group of ships is being organized to support the joint operations there. It is suspected that the Voth threat will be developed throughout the coming days and weeks. Little to no activity on the Klingon front for the past few weeks and only limited interaction with other aggressor species. Minor incursions against supply lanes continue in the Beta Ursae sector, but most are held at bay.

So far, our forces have been able to respond quickly, driving off the pirate attacks. We still lack significant details about the Voth intentions in the Solanae System, however as forces are diverted that way to assist with Starfleet Operations there, it's likely details will be forthcoming.

- Engineering teams on Alpha and Gamma shifts are to prioritize all efforts to reestablish the main power distribution nodes throughout several of the newly constructed starbase additions following various complaints of main-source power outages.

Threat Assessment Current hostilities in Etai Eradani have somewhat lessened in intensity. The Klingon empire seems satisfied at the moment to honor it's temporary coalition with the federation concerning the recently discovered Dyson sphere. Continued friction between the True Way movement and powers in Beta Ursae continue to cause dangerous tensions in the region In Tau Dewa is also the Iconian Gateway that has been commandeered by a joint coalition and ultimately lead to the discovery of the Dyson sphere that most Alpha and Beta quadrant powers are involved in defending against a new enemy. The Voth seem content at this time with skirmishing in and near the Dyson Sphere for the time being. We do not know if that will change. In closing we believe threat levels to be at an all time high, given the multiple fronts that starfleet in engaged in.

Cardassian and Bajoran ships in the Beta Ursae sector continue to be attacked by Cardassian Separatist. Federation ships are also at risk, prompting further federation presence in the area. The Elachi seem especially active now with the unintentional reactivation of many Iconian gateways across the sector. It is believed that Elachi raids can be expected to escalate, perhaps even into deeper federation territory.

Threat Assessment: With Mercury Squadron sending more resources to assist with the increasing threat in Beta Ursae sector, we have had limited vessel for anti-piracy missions along the Eta Eridani main transport spine. This has limited our engagement with forces there. Klingon operations continue to be on the down side. Currently the Task Force is reacting to a resurgence of Breen defectors and actions to be taken when they attempt to make contact with Federation vessels. We have already had incidents were our forces have had to act against Breen Confederacy forces attacking defectors.
