Gu Sabah Insurgency
After the Coup Sabah and the Battle of Flagstaff, Xarslasja Port Authority Dmacuv Gu Sabah and his supporters fled Flagstaff but held onto the city of Tucson along with the islands of La Paz County.
November 2024
On November 6th, 2024, the Xarslasja Legislative Authority began a direct occupation of Flagstaff and began rebuilding from the damages of the Battle of Flagstaff. Memorial Park was opened as a reminder of the brutal struggle.
Gu Sabah made no public announcements after the battle, but it was rumored that he had either fled to West Pua or to Far Harbor. Much of the XPA and its supporters fled from Flagstaff when the occupation began, coalescing in Tucson or hiding in the untamed wilderness of Coconino County. The county leadership had declared its abstention from participating in the Xarslasja Legislature and also that they would not respond to federal laws that they disagreed with, including the arrest warrant for Gu Sabah and other traitorous members of the XPA.
Surprisingly, Bezuv Agamashuya I made no efforts to immediately recapture the islands or the city of Tucson, opting instead to rebuild what had been damaged during the fight, especially in Core Xarslasja.
On November 17th, 2024, Gu Sabah made a surprise appearance in the outskirts of Nogales, leading many to believe he was hiding somewhere in the forest of western Santa Cruz County.
December 2024
In December, Havasu Island and Globe were firmly taken over by the new Xarslasja Royal Navy, though no new construction began.
Tucson became firmly entrenched as the headquarters of the Gu Sabah Insurgency, and the entirety of the forest along the Oak River was declared "unsafe" for the public. The town of Naco claimed to have no allegiance and remained neutral.
January 2025
In early January, the Thasusa By Land Initiative became a national priority of both the Bezuv and the Legislature and several new bridges were constructed crossing international boundaries. Tucson was declared an ideal location to build one of such bridges to reach Allium in what was then still West Pua. The XPA confronted the construction team and its accompanying battalion of Xarslasja Terrestrial Army (XTA) soldiers. As a result, a battle ensued. A few bombs were launched, and a makeshift wall was rapidly constructed on the east edge of the city that sucessfully prevented the XTA and the construction crew from building the bridge at its original location. As such, the road was rerouted around the core of Tucson and the bridge was built outside of the city limits.
Several citizens were reported missing in the forest area between Tucson and Naco.
Reports of armament in the Harbor Islands was reported.
February 2025
On February 6th, a coup took place in West Pua that led to most of the territory's reincorporation into East Pua, forming a repunified Pua. Gu Sabah, an ardent supporter of West Pua, saw this as unacceptable. Quickly, XPA soldiers were seen crossing the Oak River utilizing the bridge they had so recently protested. It appeared that the southwest banks of the Oak River had been seized.
