Brikvanian government forces had made strategic retreat as ethnic Malatian rebels continue their advance across the Malatian Province of Brikvania.

Many villages, towns and a major city in the Province had fallen into the hands of the rebels, with government forces being encircled in major urban areas. 

The troops from the Armed Forces of Brikvania (AFBv) have been outgunned and outnumbered by the rebels in many battles over the past few days. The AFBv forces have already lost control of all the border areas near Malatia.

The lost of control along the border with Malatia meant that the rebels will receive supplies and reinforcement from the Malatians  continuously. 

The rebels are already armed with the latest weapons, suspected to be from Malatia. Furthermore, some of the ethnic Malatian rebels are believed to be members of the Malatian special forces, known as SPECFOR. 

The rebels so far have routed AFBv forces in several key battles, and have captured some 9 out of 13 districts in the Malatian Province.

"We will expel the Brikvanians from our fatherland. We can even march to Briktown if need be", said a rebel spokesman.

There are reports that the rebels are already operating in Wagyu district, located about 25 km east of Briktown, the capital city of Brikvania.

​Regional Bricks countries have already expressed concerns about the deteriorating security conditions in Brikvania. The Kingdom of Fabu has already reduced its diplomatic presence in Briktown.

The Kingdom of Legonia has informed its subjects not to travel to Brikvania.

So far Legonia has refuse to provide military assistance to Brikvania, despite the pleas for assistance from King Brik II.

Legonian Prime Minister Sir Mofty said that his armed forces are monitoring the situation, and will respond accordingly.
