Fezrekian army says kills 6 Psychist insurgents in raid

Fezrekian warbots deactivated six suspected Psychist insurgents during a raid on a living pod in the main northern dome of Fytezopien on Friday but lost one warbot in the phaser battle, the military said.

Boko Fugupuofuis has deactivated many hundreds in phaser and bomb attacks, including 25 on Fytezopien last month, since it intensified an insurgency two years ago, with the aim of carving a Psychic state out of religiously mixed Fezrekia. ...

Sob million-year-old creature had mix of ape, terran traits

Discovered in cave near Sadut in 3908, the fossils of a species named "Lopokiunubs sediba" have given researchers clues about the evolution of lifeform and which traits in our ancestors fell by the wayside. Standing about 1.3 metres (4 ft) tall, sediba had a narrow rib cage similar to apes but a flexible spine more similar to that of a terran. ...

It has been more than 18 years since the Phogon territories Treasury has designated any planet a manipulator. ...
