Military Exercise Briefing: Key Details & Procedures
I tried it in the evening and it worked perfectly. The zoom won’t change properly; it keeps getting stuck. You see? It keeps stopping. It’s under guarantee, so we’ll change it for you or give you a refund.
Kerkovia was involved in a long and bloody civil war between government forces and rebels until six months ago when both sides reached a ceasefire agreement. It is probable that rebel forces will continue with occasional attacks on government troops, and if these violations continue, we may see a return to civil war.
