In the year 230 BBY, Yeksom became the target of an attack orchestrated by the Nihil amidst the Nihil conflict. This site was strategically selected due to its considerable distance from both the Jedi and Starlight Beacon. In the course of this assault, the Nihil deliberately targeted non-combatants with the intention of instigating widespread disorder. This action was one of four concurrent offensives, with parallel assaults unfolding on Japeal, Aleen, and Tais Brabbo.
