Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC.)
One day ago a mining camp employing slaves in southern Dathomir was attacked by an unidentified YT-2400. According to preliminary reports by an investigation expedition sent after early reports came in the attacker was held at bay for some time by turret fire from a YT-1300 on the ground but eventually managed to destroy the ship and then disembark a ground force that stormed the camp.
From what is known the guards and other staff of the camp were shot and about a dozen wookiee slaves, all in bad health and suffering from radiation sickness, were freed and taken off Dathomir, presumably to get them to a clinic and treat them.
Judging by the corpses found in shallow graves near the strip mine over a hundred wookiees had already been killed in the mine prior to the attack. So far it has not yet been determinded what exactly had been mined there, though traces point to crystalline ore. Likewise it is unknown at this point who had been running the mining operation, though one corpse has been identified as Aplok Siders, a mercenary operating in the Outer Rim.
It is not known if this attack is related to a raid on a Bloodscale slaver camp on Kashyyyk, but the timing is supiciously close to both that raid and may have been a reaction to the razing of a wookiee village earlier this week.
