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

One week ago the YT-2400 class light freighter "TTC-Running Silent", escorted by pilot Liliah in an Incom X-Wing fighter, was underway in the Naboo system with a cargo of ore for the IMC. Near the Naboo Station it was attacked by two pirates, a Vaksai heavy fighter and a Rhikxyrk heavy fighter.



In the following fight the escort was shot down though its pilot could be recovered by the freighter before the freighter itself was shot and disabled by the pirates, and soon boarded.

While the pirates were plundering the freighter a group of unidentified ships approached. The pirates, claiming it was a "Deathwatch" flight bent on destroying all in their path, fled while the crrew of the freighter used the escape pods before the ship was destroyed. RSF is still investigating the incident.

IMC shares fell 2 % at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news, TTC shares 0,5 %.
