The rebel group known as the Garel City cell emerged in Garel City on the planet Garel. It was established, organized, and directed by the Leonis family, Spanjaf family, and Statura family following the Galactic Empire's success in driving off Phoenix Cell. This crackdown on potential resistance groups ironically spurred more rebellious actions. This cell persisted in their resistance efforts, ultimately leading to Garel's freedom from Imperial control.
