Situation
Yesterday, a hostile force of unknown origin, calling themselves "Sword of Faith" (SoF) has infiltrated Beirut and is now taking over the streets by force. We believe them to be followers of a regional warlord who has recently secured substantial funding, and who is now seeking to establish their base of operations. Beirut appears to be that intended base.

Bloodshed has been limited so far. This morning, an ultimatum was received by the city's council to officially hand over all authority to SoF, and declare Beirut an official, independent state under the rule of SoF. SoF troops are dispersed throughout the city, controlling key points.

Our presence in this area is limited, and we only have six combat-ready assets with us on board of the Tarawa-class Amphibious Assault Ship "Ardennes". We have signaled our intend of support to the city's council. One hour ago, the council has convened to debate and later vote on the ultimatum. Unless we can remove the threat from the streets of Beirut in time, we believe that the council will vote in favor of surrendering to SoF. To secure the region, it is imperative that the council remains steadfast against regional strongmen.

OBJECTIVES
Neutralize all SoF troops that are controlling the streets of Beirut. We must complete our objective in time and give the council the all-clear before they start voting, which is scheduled to begin in some two hours.

We expect the opposition to field a mixture of lightly armored Technicals common for this region, strengthened by some heavy armor. Be advised that SoF is rumored to have access to some heavy AA-capable assets, among them possibly "Gepard" SPAAG and AN/TWQ "Avenger". Also be on the look-out for shoulder-mounted missile launchers, which are reported to have been brought in last night.

We are launching Recon One with the objective to scout the area of operations and identify targets for you.

Two flights of Cobras are protecting our task force, and will defend Beirut international airport.

Eliminate all threats inside the area designated "Rumble Tango" on your map before the vote starts, then report back to the Ardennes. If required, you can rearm and refuel on the Ardennes, crews are standing by.

Weather:
CAVOK, slight wind from the SW
