Op Veritable 06 - 2025/12/06
Situation
The Danish Island of Bornholm was among multiple territories that suffered from largescale jamming and electronic disruption. The source being identified as to come from a Cormorant Freight vessel, the Storm Petrel. Following disruption of the Petrel's Electronic Warfare (EW) capabilities it has been confirmed that Toska PMC have established a foothold on the island. Lavrencij Krečič has been confirmed to be on location residing within the town of Aakirkeby, further intelligence suggests that specialist elements of Toska have withdrawn to Bornholm undetected. Alongside this, Toska have been confirmed to have developed portable suitcase devices carrying the same chemical payload found in Ballistic Missile systems captured during Operation Shrouded Lance, this includes schematic information provided by Edvard Petrovič. A total of three devices, one secured by NATO troops, were developed.
Estimates place that Toska have established a presence in Bornholm at the same time first reports of conflict in Rügen were made. Efforts to signal for assistance by defending Military and Police personnel in Bornholm were prevented by the Electronic Warfare coordinated by the Storm Petrel. Observations by air patrols coordinated by the U.S Air Force report that the island is actively contested, indicating that the presence in Bornholm was to facilitate the relocation of Lavrencij Krečič.

Commanders intent
Intent of Operation Veritable 06 is to secure a foothold on Bornholm by landing 2 PARA and RTR in the south while 40 Commando conducts disruptive raids against logistics and infrastructure in the north, enabling coalition forces to fragment Toska’s defensive structure across the island. Dutch Marines advancing from the north-west will pressure Toska’s lines while UK forces push north to divide Bornholm into two isolated regions, denying Toska the ability to reinforce or manoeuvre. These actions aim to rapidly degrade their combat capability and set the conditions to locate and assault the assessed position of Lavrencij Krečič for his capture and extradition to Novihrastova.
