The Castlederg Missile Strike occurred on November 30, 2022 at the border crossing of Ajakanistan and Gjorka in the small town of Castlederg.
The missile struck approximately 24 hours after the Ostlandet Union (OU) had issued a unilateral declaration recognizing the Free Council of Ajakanistan as the legitimate government of Ajakanistan and demanding the communist government to step down. Included in the declaration was a demand for the Ajaki government to meet OU representatives at Castlederg and turn themselves him to amnesty. The strike killed several OU representatives present including Martin Kittle, Banbhán Mac Cartaine, and Lidia Kasak and Spuinkvol Bobischkov from the Free Council along with estimated 200+ others.
The strike immediately incited Skirmishes to occur across the Ajakanistan–Gjorka border, and begin a Gjorkan invasion of Ajakanistan. The National Assembly of Gjorka passed a resolution declaring war against Ajakanistan a few hours later, and New Gandor joined the war after Gjorka invoked their Mutual Defense treaty.
