Martial law declared on Malden

PrĂ©sident Moulin has officially declared martial law on Malden. The announcement was made in a televised address and coincided with the MP and the ArmĂ©e proper conducting surprise raids in Saint Louis, La TrinitĂ© and Larche. The news, while yet another set back for the citizens of Malden, ultimately doesn’t come as a surprise, as the situation on the island has gradually worsened over the last month. AAN World News is committed to continue covering the conflict.
