Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
After several weeks of relative quiet, there's bee another attack on civilian shipping in the Naboo system. One week ago, an IMC convoy consisting of Captain Ryian Coron's YT-1300 "Spinning Cloud" and Captain Aenius Bosk's Vigo-class freighter "Vengeance", escorted by an X-Wing, was attacked during their stopover in the Naboo system on the way to Ord Mantell when two raiders surprised the "Vengeance".
Fortunately the attackers - an old ARC-170 recon fighter and a relatively new A-Wing interceptor - were destroyed without losses when the rest of the convoy arrived. The rest of the trip saw no further complications.
IMC stock dropped some at the Coronet stock exchange when the first news about the attack arrived, but recovered when it was announced that no damage was taken and no freight was lost. It remains to be seen if the recent operations by the Imperial Navy in the Karthakk system, a notorious pirate haven, will have any effect upon the pirate threat.
