1. Universal Brotherhood: Expanding Influence Amidst Controversy
The Universal Brotherhood continues to grow its presence across North America. The Brotherhood’s humanitarian work has garnered widespread support, providing shelter and food to hundreds of thousands. However, whispers of internal controversies and small-scale incidents have raised concerns in certain circles.

2. Skyview Elite to Launch Major Tour
Skyview Elite has officially announced a 6-month executive protection contract for the highly anticipated Halo tour, set to span UCAS, CAS, Europe, and the Caribbean League. The tour, which will promote Halo’s "Darklight" album, is expected to draw massive crowds, with venues selling out within hours of ticket release. Halo’s impromptu performance last weekend at the Black Wolf Club in Redmond sent fans into a frenzy, marking a new chapter in her already storied career.
3. International News: Dozens Arrested in Connection to Edmonton Terror Attack
In a coordinated effort, the FBI, NSA, and Lone Star made dozens of arrests over the weekend in connection with the Edmonton terrorist drone attack. The culprits have been linked to ProEvolution, the human supremacist group responsible for the attack that left 74 dead and hundreds injured. The raids targeted key operatives in multiple cities, with the FBI stating that "significant progress" has been made in dismantling the network. Authorities have warned, however, that ProEvolution cells are still active, and further attacks remain a possibility.

A commercial space shuttle en route from Io to Ganymede in the Jovian system was hijacked over the weekend, with the situation still unfolding as of this morning. The shuttle, carrying 30 passengers and crew, was taken over by a group of unidentified individuals demanding control over a portion of the asteroid belt’s mining operations. Negotiations with Jovian security forces are ongoing, but the remote location and communication delays have complicated rescue efforts. The fate of the hostages remains unclear as the tension escalates.

The leak, attributed to an unknown group of deckers, has caused internal upheaval within the corporation. Aztechnology has vowed to tighten security and punish those responsible, though insiders suggest that the information may have already been sold to a rival megacorp. Stock prices took a slight dip following the announcement.

Seattle’s Emerald Slashers suffered a narrow defeat at the hands of the Portland Reavers in a grueling 5-4 urban brawl match.

Meanwhile, anticipation builds for the upcoming Cross-Corp Cup, which kicks off later this month.
