Attack on Libria

Date: 311011
Planet: Corellia
Region: Libria

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

Three days ago the city of Libria on Corellia, near Doaba Guerfel, came under attack by unidentified forces, which landed troops inside the city with three shuttles under cover from starfighters. Security forces engaged the attackers while civilians were evacuated.

CorSec responses were inexplicably delayed though the crew of the YT-2400 freighter "Sugar Rush" heard the distress call and joined the defenders, first helping to clear the city's airspace, then landing and engaging the attackers under the direction of mayor Falcun Nix.



While a starfighter and a shuttle were destroyed, another shuttle captured and numerous attackers killed one shuttle managed to get away. Casualties among the town's security forces were heavy, some of them even caused by friendly fire, though a suspect claimed "they shot first". No civilians were hurt during the attack however, which is a small consolation.



Town authorities announced an investigation into the reasons for the delayed response by CorSec.
