A small group of terrorists attacked the Angel of Mercy Medical Research Facility this week destroying vaccine stocks scheduled for distribution to the outer colonies.
With research staff already reassigned to other centers and a majority of the laboratory equipment moved or in storage, damages to the facility itself were negligible. However, the actual human cost cannot be measured for some time as the absence of viable vaccines slowly makes itself apparent.
Military officials have released the following statement "As no group has claimed direct responsibility for this outrage, blanket measures must be instituted at once to preserve the security of Zenobia." Meanwhile, rewards are being offered for information leading to the apprehension of those responsible.
In the wake of this attack, a current bill restricting foreigner travel to the Zenobian surface is expected to pass Parliament early next week.
