Battle of Fanha

A battle took place at the Outer Rim astronomical object Fanha in 17 BBY as part of the Reconquest of the Rim campaign's Western Reaches Operation. Following an ambush by the Iska pirates at the Outer Rim planet Bryndar, Galactic Empire military forces under Admiral Terrinald Screed and the pilot Shea Hublin decimated the Iska pirates at Fanha, forcing the pirate lord Guun Cutlax to flee into the Atravis sector. There, Cutlax rendezvoused with holdouts of the Confederacy of Indepent Systems that had been defeated during the Clone Wars two years earlier. The privateers led by Cutlax were later defeated by the Empire at the Outer Rim planet Tosste in 17 BBY.
