Coruscant spaceport siege

The Coruscant spaceport siege involved the six civilians, including a Mon Calamari senator and his aide, hostage by a band of Korunnai terrorists inside a spaceport. The terrorists were threatening to blow up the hostages if the Republic did not cease interfering on Haruun Kal. The CSF had surrounded the spaceport and kept the terrorists from escaping and called in the support of Omega Squad to diffuse the situation. Also called in was Null ARC Captain Ordo, Kal Skirata, and a Jedi negotiator. The Jedi knight was equipped with a strip-cam so that the commandos could see images of the terrorists and then attempted to convince the Korunnai to let at least two of the hostages go in exchange for the Jedi. The Korunnai refused and one spotted the holocam. The Jedi was killed instantly and his body booby trapped with a detonator before being thrown back outside. A group of CSF officers and clone commando Fi approached the body and spotted the trap. Knowing that the detonator would kill the surrounding CSF officers, Fi through himself on the body, shielding the officers from the blast. Fi survived due to his high-spec Katarn body armor.

The commandos decided that they were going to have to go in and kill all the terrorists before the Korun could execute them. When the terrorists requested food, water, and buckets (for 'freshers), Kal Skirata used this as the oppurtunity to find out if all the hostages were fine and to get some more valuable intelligence on the terrorists.

The Korrunai let Kal inside of the spaceport, and he himself was made a hostage as well. The commandos and the CSF could hear (via small listening devices planted on Skirata) and were able to identify who was a terrorist and who was a hostage. Then they went in.

Omega squad burst in through the doors and Ordo through the ceiling. Within twenty seconds the fighting was over and all four of the terrorists were dead and no hostages. During the midst of the short battle, Fi nearly killed Kal Skirata in a friendly fire incident when Kal kept Fi from killing a hostage who had been forcibly disguised as one of the terrorists. This hostage turned out to be a member of the Corporate Sector Authority's Direx Board, who was the actual target of the terrorists, not the senator. The Korunnai had hoped that the commandos would accidently kill the CSA direx board member, causing the CSA to joint the Separatist cause. Their plan nearly succeded.
