The assault targeting Raithal Academy transpired not long before the battle of Talus during the era of the Galactic Civil War.
Acting under the express command of the Emperor, Imperial Special Forces created a specialized unit of hunters on the planet Corellia. Their designated task involved locating and obliterating a secret Rebel base situated on Talus, a moon belonging to the Corellian system. At the Imperial Academy located on Raithal, a week long briefing was underway, detailing a forthcoming operation within the Corellian system. The Alliance initiated a sudden raid on the academy, with the intention of interfering with the Imperial strategic planning.
A team under the command of Captain Coret Bhan executed a swift and decisive assault upon the Raithal Academy. A Rebel attack team disembarked just outside the Raithal Academy and - instead of attempting to seize or demolish the facility - aimed to upset Imperial strategies and capitalize on the publicity surrounding the Rebel attack on the highly esteemed Imperial Academy. As the Academy's cadets mounted a respectable defense, the Rebel forces retreated in a disciplined manner toward their transport vessels, leaving behind several explosive devices intended for use in destroying the starport during their departure.
