CH711: Merchant of the North
The HI-Def Soln Gunship, Falcon Suppressor, made its way further inland after buying the Frogmen enough time for reinforcement to arrive.
It returned back on route to its original objective in Latakia.
-
HI-Def soln's planned takeover of Latakia required the PMC to control two strategic locations.
The Port of Latakia and the Bazel Assam International Airport...
Both locations were the only viable entry points for the private military force into the region now that the Land routes weren't due to the civil war.
The attack on the port was planned purely as a military operation. However, the airport attack would require a bit of finesse which could only be provided by an Intel outfit.

A day earlier...
Even amidst the conflict in the region, people still tried to hold on to a semblance of life.
A market was opened in a village in the outskirts of Latakia city.
