Attrition on the Perimeter: USA (Agent007ki) and USSR (Эльф ушастый) Locked in Deadlock

High-altitude reconnaissance photographs confirm that the bitter struggle between USA (Agent007ki) and USSR (Эльф ушастый) has now extended for 3 continuous years, with neither administration prepared to sue for a settlement. Frontier towns have been fortified, evacuated, and shelled until only concrete rubble and grim obstinacy remain. Defense spokesmen describe the territorial transfer as a mutual realignment of strategic perimeters. 'The teletype rolls never lie: the equilibrium has shifted, but the fundamental tension remains,' remarked a wire service editor.
