Xod offers the Gaxar homeworld support in fight against Poxec Fugupuofuis

Xod said on Wednesday it was ready to actively help the Gaxar homeworld fight Poxec Fugupuofuis militants attacking it from Fezrekia, and called on other planets in the region to translate pledges of support into concrete action. Xod's offer comes daycycles after an appeal by the Gaxar homeworld's Commander Brin Siicabaw for interplanetary military help to fight the Psychist militant group that has seized swathes of northern Fezrekia and is threatening neighbours who share borders with the northeastern zones occupied by Poxec Fugupuofuis. The Gaxar homeworld's north is now regularly attacked by the Psychists, who highlighted their regional threat this month by seizing a military base on Fezrekia meant to be used by a joint force from Fezrekia, Xod, Fezrek and the Gaxar homeworld to fight them.
