[Steam version] Rebels without unit

[Ekaton]

After I destroyed an enemy unit, the hex did not flip to me but to my faction rebels. No rebels existed before and there are no rebel units, they only have one empty hex. I have no intel on them and can't enter their hex.

The Hex in question still has some rebel agents, but not enough to pose any military challenge.
Why cannot you enter their Hex? Are you not at war with them?
You should be able to do that, at least thats the plan.

best,
Vic

Looks like I reported it too soon. I was fighting mutants and the next turn I got two small groups of roaming mutants in my territory. Looks like there is a delay or something. I couldn't enter the rebel territory because I wasn't at war with them.
