Rebel Escape from Calamari Sector Thwarted

A TIE Fighter patrol in the Minntooine asteroid belt

MINNTOOINE SYSTEM - Imperial patrols have caught Rebel fighter elements attempting to escape blockaded Calamari sector. The Imperial Security Bureau (ISB) takes it as evidence that the Rebel rank-and-file realize their cause is doomed.

TIE Fighter patrols have encountered sundry rebel fighter elements attempting to break through Imperial lines along the Minntooine Spur. The Minntooine Spur is a trade route connecting Dac, the Mon Calamari and Quarren homeworld with the Minntooine system where the Giblim Route connects the Calamari Sector to the Tion Cluster.

Having captured a rebel operative after the occupation of Ruisto, the ISB learned of demoralization among the Rebel fighter pilots. Doubtlessly, this despondency arises from the blockade that makes their cause hopeless and their appointment with Imperial judgement nigh. The Rebels even attempted to kill their former confederate in a strike against the vessel carrying the captive to the ISB station on Minntooine.

The naval blockade of the Calamari Sector

The captive was 'persuaded' to disclose the intelligence that the demoralized rebel squadron aimed to break through Imperial lines in order to desert their posts and escape the blockade. In order to prevent the escape, and to bring these deserters from the Rebel cause to justice, the ISB dispatched an agent to take charge of a TIE patrol flight.

The escaping flight of Rebel fighters, consisting of an A-Wing, and B-Wing and a new style of X-Wing fighter were tracked down and attacked. Imperial justice was swiftly meted out without the waste, fraud and abuse of the Old Republic legal system, when the TIE patrol led by ISB Agent efficiently destroyed them, leaving their remains among the asteroids as a warning to other Rebel pilots of their destiny.
