There were two battles in New Mexico this week -- at Mesilla on the 26th and Fort Fillmore on the 27th -- both Confederate victories.
At Fort Fillmore 500 Union troops surrendered to around 300 Confederates, bringing total casualties on both sides so far to around 7,600.

Here then is a summary of 27 engagements to date:

Virginia: 6 CSA victories, 3 inconclusive
West Virginia: 6 USA victories, 1 CSA victory
Missouri: 3 USA victories, 3 CSA victories
South Carolina: 1 CSA victory, 1 N/A
New Mexico: 2 CSA victories
Maryland: 1 USA victory

Including the two engagements at Fort Sumter, there have been now 11 total engagements in two Confederate states, plus 16 engagements in four Union states.
It is, so far, a war of Confederate aggression against the United States.
