I wish to speak to every concerned citizen about this. The ZSD has ongoing investigations to these events, and rest assured, anyone found responsible for any of these deaths will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. With that said, I must ask that you refrain from sharing unverified information, that will cause panic and unrest. There is no use for it.

I do not believe that there is a severe threat to the life and liberty of the citizens of Zilatra; while these are uncertain times, as long as we remain vigilant, and cautious, I am sure that we will be safe. If you see anything suspicious, or concerning, please reach out to the ZSD, who will take any information you can provide them seriously. They are here to protect us."
