Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).

After a slight lull, pirate attacks increased again. Yesterday, the IMC Convoy Convoy from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to Nova Orion Station, Ord Mantell, was once again attacked in force by pirate raiders in the Naboo system. The convoy entered at Kylantha's Whim, where the lead ship, Captain Ryian Coron's YT-1300 "Spinning Cloud" took off, followed by Captain Traynu Asog's YT-1300 "Climbatize", escorted by three fighters, took off for the next jump point. On the way, they were jumped by several raiders - mostly A-Wings and probably stolen imperial interceptors. The convoy fought them all off, however, without any losses other than some damage to an escorting T-65 piloted by Zaando, who was able to continue the trip after emergency repairs by its astrodroid.

IMC Stock rose 3% at the Coronet stock exchange following the repulsed attack.
