Mortar shelling
"Kilo 1, orders received," a reply quickly came back.
"Enemy units are preparing to use mortars to strike at our sisters. I need you to destroy them. Athena will read out the coordinates; you can calibrate them easily with her help. Laser-guided ammunition only. Remember, we only hit our targets, nothing else."
"Roger, Kilo 1 setting up mortar position."
"Move fast, we don't have time. We aren't afraid of being hit, but that doesn't mean civilians are invulnerable. We cannot allow that stain to follow our careers. Understood?"
"Understood!"

Although the battlefield had moved into the inner circle and they were resting outside, appropriate measures to protect themselves from being flanked were necessary.
