Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Crimson Ridge's rebuilding efforts saw fruits faster than expected, with the shuttleport being reopened today, and regular shuttle services having resumed. New mayor Ashana Naberrie stated that she could not express her gratitude enough towards all the people who lent their support to the rebuilding efforts.
In addition to restoring the shuttleport donations from friends from Naboo have helped the current government establish a central park along the city thoroughfare. Citizens who left the town during the latest events are seen returning, and temporarily closed shops are reopening in light of the city's restoration.

New mayor in Crimson Ridge
Date: 270710
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Crimson Ridge
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
According to the latest news Crimson Ridge is currently being rebuilt under new mayor Ashana Naberrie, a tailor and businesswoman. The exact circumstances of the crisis that hit the city and caused the shuttleport and city hall to be destroyed are yet unclear, though a new city hall has been erected and efforts to repair the shuttleport are still under way.
The fate of former mayor Thode Voth is not known, though rumors claim he was killed in a recent explosion caused by a group named "The Nightflower Syndicate", said to be associated with the Black Sun, and on behalf of an agent known as "Nightflower Two", though since the syndicate is known to take assassination contracts this might be deliberate misinformation.
Some sources claim that the nightflower syndicate doesn't hire anyone but female agents, their ranks displayed by the numbers added to their code names, but this as well remains unconfirmed.

IMC Convoy involved in spy affair?
Date: 270710
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
After the loss or near loss of two convoys in the past weeks, the Intergalactic Mining Corporation spared no expense in making sure their next ore cargo arrived safely at the Nova Orion shipyards in Ord Mantell. When the ship - Captain Alila Tisoni's YT-2400 "Corelian Star" - launched from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, it was escorted by four fighters: One TIE Fighter and one TIE Oppressor, courtesy of the Imperial Navy, a Bellubab-22 piloted by Barrenger Fynar and one Vaksai piloted by Consequential.
The convoy excited the Tatooine system without encountering any pirates, but was attacked severalt times in the Naboo system, without any harm done other than some armor damage to one fighter, before reaching the Ord Mantell System.
There the "Corellia Star" encountered an unidentified Corellian corvette, which started to fire on the convoy while the freighter sped away. While the corvette was destroyed in the following fight, one Imperial pilot later, on the Nova Orion Station, voiced his suspicion that Captain Tisoni had sent an encoded transmission to the corvette prior to the battle - though the destruction of the corvette meant that it could not be proven or disproven. Further investigations are expected though.
IMC shares rose 2% at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.

Rebels attack Imperial base in Corellia System
Date: 250710
Planet: Corellia System
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the Corellia system was the site of one of the longest and most brutal space battles in the sector. An Imperial Base situated at an asteroid was discovered to be the target of a massive rebel offensive and Imperial ships were scrambled to defend it from all over the sector. Led by the YE-4-class gunboat "Onyx Mauler" the ad-hoc defense forces consisted of about a dozen starfighters of various types gathered from several units.
The defenders were soon pressed hard as wave after wave of rebel ships attacked, from squadrons of Nova Courier missile boats to swarms of X-Wings and A-Wings, Y-Wings and B-Wing bombers augmented with Vaksais and ARC-170s, as well as several gunboats it seemed as if the entire rebel fleet of the sector was involved in the battle.
Despite being outnumbered massively the defenders held the line for hours, beating back attack after attack and inflicting heavy losses on the rebels, who were at times attacking the base heedless of their own safety or survival. After more than two and a half hours the evacuation order was finally given, and the base abandonned.
Unfortunately the ship transporting the case crew was shot down shortly before reaching safety.

Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Six days ago the weekly cargo convoy transporting ore for the Intergalactic Mining Corporation from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion shipyards was struck by pirates in the Tatooine system, like a week earlier already.
Captain Kentt' flew with the Y-8 medium freighter "Dieting Sarlacc II", Captain Alila Tisoni in her YT-2400 "Corellian Star" while Batair Highlander piloted the YT-2400 "TTC-Tencilia", with Ahl-Vin and Patryn serving as escorts.
Despite their numbers all ships of the convoy were severly damaged in a short engagement and most of the cargo was lost, with the remainder robbed by the pirates. The wounded were later treated in the Farpoint Valley Medical Center.
IMC shares fell 5% at the Coronet Stock Exchange following the news.

Holovid star on the run
Date: 190710
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Black Sands
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Four days ago Black Sands erupted in violence when a squad of stormtroopers were attacked and almost wiped out to a man by unknown attackers. While the exact details are not known, rumors claim that the soldiers were assisting an ISB representative in the arrest of holovid star Amul'ette. Apparently the twi'lek actress has broken her parole, though how is currently not known.
Amul'ette has not een seen since the incident, presumably hiding with whoever killed the Imperial troopers. This is bound to cause a second look at the verdict of the recent trial in Fort Keen, which saw the actress cleared of the charges of treason and support of the Rebel Alliance.

Planet: Tatooine
Region: Farpoint Valley
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night a wake was held in Jailbirds for Celox Scorpio, late manager of Holowood Galactic Studios. Celox, who had been executed two weeks ago following a trial in Fort Keen, had been a frequent visitor to the club, and a plaque in his memory was mounted and unveiled in the venue's gambling room during the wake.
Several of Celox' friends attended, each one speaking about the rodian's life and the impact he has had on them, before toasting his memory. As was asked for in the invitations politics were not brought up in the speeches during those personal moments.
Ramona retold how she first met Celox while he was still working as a mercenary pilot and how he gradually became the entertainment manager he was known so widely as in the end. Poe'kunal told the story of how the wily gambler managed to beat him in a card game he thought won for sure and celebrity street rapper Ronin'Jekknai' spoke of his experiences with Celox as manager of HGS, and of the courage Celox showed despite his fear. Others spoke of their own encounters with the rodian, some shedding some light on a few shadier and less known aspects of Celox' life.

Rebel Alliance takes control of ore-rich asteroids
Date: 110710
Planet: Deep Space
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Last night the rebel alliance mounted a large offensive in Deep Space to take control of key ore-rich asteroids. According to some sources this surprised the Imperial Fleet, who had expected a push in different systems, and had deployed the available ships accordingly.
Nevertheless the Imperial forces on station in Deep Space met the rebel fleet and managed to hold the line for an hour despite seriously outnumbered and faced with rebel capital ships as well as a large number of snubfighters. In the end though they had to concede control of the asteroids to the rebel fleet.
The following footage released by the Imperial Navy shows part of the fighting:

More pirate attacks in Naboo
Date: 110710
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
The Naboo system remains a qite dangerous system for interestellar merchants, despite the large military presence in the system. The reason for the frequent attacks is likely related to the Galactic Civil War - with the battle of Restuss raging on, most of the military ships are tied up in the struggle for control of the planet's orbit, and not available for policing the spacelanes.
A week ago the cargo convoy transporting ore for the Intergalactic Mining Corporation from Farpoint Valley, Tatooine, to the Nova Orion shipyards in Ord Mantell was therefore beset by pirates again.
Inaera Kell's YT-2400 "Outlaw's Justice", with veteran gunner Falcun Nix and Ramona, as well as Captain Awyn's transport "Dark Valkyre", with Flar gunning, were escorted by Barrenger Fynar's newly modified Dunelizard. Yet the three ships were attacked by a Z-95 and an X-Wing.
In the short battle both Barrenger and the "Outlaw's Justice" took some damage before the pirates were dealt with and the convoy continued to Ord Mantell.

Dead man found in Mos Espa tied to mass murder in Theed
Date: 040710
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Mos Espa
Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).
Two days ago the body of a human male was found outside Mos Espa, in a speeder. It was a gruesome sight - the body had been shot upwards of four hundred times at close range according to forensics, likely by a number of people.
So far the body could not be identified - there are no matching biological records. No teeth were found for dental records, nor was there an ID. Whether the dead man was not registered because he came from outside the Galactic Empire, or whether his records were wiped by someone is not clear so far, but it is fueling speculations.
The only clue found was, accoridng to a well-informed source, a datapad that when turned on showed a black sun emblem, and a matching medallion around what was left of his neck.
The datapad also supposedly contained information linking the dead man to a mass murder spree in Theed about four years ago. This new information may clear the name of former intelligence agent Myxxie Eosad, who has been convicted for the crimes. Sadly it will happen posthumously.
The perpetrators of this murder are as of yet unknown, though because an Imperial General was murdered during the attack almost a half decade ago and the possibility of the official records being manipulated, speculation about their identitiy and motives runs rampant. The mysterious killers could be friends of Ms. Eosad, or former colleagues.
