A blockade fleet of the Galactic Empire's Imperial Navy blockaded the planet Mon Cala after a mutiny against the Empire was instigated. The fleet was led by Admiral Tyrus Meori and consisted of six Imperial II-class Star Destroyers. During the battle against the Alliance Fleet and the Mon Cala Mercantile Fleet, the Mon Cala vessel Aurora Flare conducted a suicidal run against the flagship of the blockade, destroying it when Imperial forces ignited the Aurora Flares coaxium cargo. The breach allowed for the rebellious naval forces to escape, although Imperial ships moved in and destroyed The Regency on Mon Cala's surface.
