Indeed, our pilots had a reason to open fire on miss Hart and her associates, which was no other than self-defense. She and her Gaian companions, as well as a Kusarian mercenary, decided to willingly assist the Blue Code specimens (Nomads) and the Armed Forces attempting the termination of OSS reconnaissance wings Defender and Lambda. I would like to note that all ships attacking us, even the "civilians" she speaks of, willingly shot at Defender and Lambda without provocation.
Her exaggeration, claiming that our ships opened fire on everything they saw simply with assuming that they were infested, is needless to say, far fetched. Our personnel waited to fall under fire first, only then did they draw their conclusions of the offensive craft being infected. With all due honesty, Vice Admiral... simply by the fact that a dozen of ships took arms in the defense of Code Blue specimen, I am not willing to disregard the assumption of my personnel. Even if the gathering of evidence is still in progress, Bretonia has a higher rate of nomad infestation present than we previously anticipated.
Regardless, I have given you viewing access to the debriefing of Lieutenant Yakovlev which explains the events that took place in Dublin yesterday in detail. If deemed necessary, we can also report the progress of Operation Iris to the Order High Command. With that I would also like to request that your personnel refrain from labeling us as "renegades" or charge us with the murder of Cerberus operatives due to the personal disapproval of our methodology.
This is rather...disturbing. I believe we will have to allocate more resources there in the future.
Thank you for your cooperation, and keep up the good work.
