Horuz

Horuz was a planet located in the Horuz system in the Atrivis sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Horuz was what the Partisans considered a "dark planet," meaning it was a seemingly insignificant planet that experienced communication blackouts and much higher protocols than normal. In 7 BBY, Jyn Erso was sent on a mission to Horuz to assassinate the Imperial scientist Dorin Bell, who was eventually killed by land mines. Shortly before the Battle of Scarif, Imperial forces were deployed to Horuz. In the lead-up to the Battle of Jakku in 5 ABY, Horuz was reportedly to still be in the thrall of either an Imperial remnant or the criminal syndicates and gangs.

Horuz's surface included cliffs, canyons, and forests.
