The Minor Conflict on AB-343 represents a small engagement that took place within the broader context of the Jedi Civil War.
Following the Battle of Czerka 431, Joni Ree, a technician formerly employed by the Czerka Corporation, switched her allegiance to the Galactic Republic. The Republic dispatched Ree, accompanied by a trio of their security personnel, with the objective of retrieving information from a destroyed Czerka research facility designated AB-343. Simultaneously, the Sith Empire became aware that this operation threatened to reveal their clandestine partnership with Czerka. Consequently, they resolved to deploy a Sith assassin with the mission of eliminating Ree. In parallel, the GenoHaradan determined that maintaining the secrecy of the alliance served their interests, leading them to dispatch their own assassin as well.
