Operation Secret Santa
CANSOFCOM
Situation
GWSC Insurgents routinely raid surrounding villages but without fail each year they really out do themselves and hit a major supply convoy intended for villages and towns in the surrounding area.
Each year the towns plead with the Russian Government who make some noise but largely ignore the situation. This year however, the towns reached out en-mass to the United Nations for aid. The United Nations put incredible pressure on the Russian Ministry of Defense who capitulated and has agreed to allow Canada to insert two Sections of Canadian Special Operations Regiment (CSOR) Tier 1 Operators into an AO designated by the Russian Ministry of Defense.
