Battle of Xagobah

During the Galactic Civil War between the Rebel Alliance and Galactic Empire, the Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry fought a battle against the Empire in the canyons of the astronomical object Xagobah in 3 ABY. The battle came as part of Operation Ringbreaker, where the 61st targeted a number of soft Imperial targets to force military redeployments from the Empire's Kuat Drive Yards to weaken its security for a final attack.

The 61st secured a victory, sustaining some casualties between that conflict and one fought on the planet Naator. The rebel unit, however, did not ultimately complete Operation Ringbreaker. When the campaign was examined by the Rebel Alliance Intelligence Service, General Crix Madine listed Xagobah among the targets in a report on Operation Ringbreaker's first phase, which was later included among an archive of non-electric documents called The Rebel Files by archivist Hendri Underholt.
