Kestro City, often shortened to just Kestro, functioned as the capital city located on the planet of Vardos. During Operation: Cinder, the deployment of climate disruption arrays against the planet and its capital led to a skirmish involving defectors from the Galactic Empire belonging to Inferno Squad. By the year 34 ABY, the city was deserted, save for those engaged in active combat to seize control, which included stormtroopers serving the First Order.
