Op White Orchid 03 - 2025/07/12

Situation

Acknowledgements

Refer to the situation report for detailed information on known factions and identification.
Civilian population are neutral to our activities, though it is likely members of the cartel are among the population.
Police, while government-funded and cartel-controlled, appear to heavily support the local population. While not overtly hostile, they are unlikely to assist us in anyway and will most likely report our positions if detected.

Commanders intent

The intent for the first phase of Operation White Orchid is to destabilise the Chucomayo Cartel’s forward infrastructure along the coast and weaken its grip on the surrounding jungle interior. This will be achieved by executing a series of coordinated strikes targeting their logistical lifelines, degrading their ability to project force, and establishing a foothold for deeper inland operations.

These operations will prioritise the disruption of cartel movement by dismantling air and maritime mobility, followed by the capture of strategic positions that offer both operational leverage and intelligence value. Civilian engagement will be minimised, though heightened cartel presence near population centres may result in indirect resistance.

We will exploit cartel overconfidence and their rapid overextension of military assets while attempting to locate and secure key personnel, aiming to prepare the battlespace for targeted action against high-value individuals in later phases of the operation.
