Bombing of Coruscant's central power distribution grid

"The bombing of the power generator has been confirmed to be a Separatist attack!"

- Senator Gume Saam in the Galactic Senate

During the Clone Wars, a bombing occurred on the Republic capital Coruscant of the planet's power generator. The attack was planned by Count Dooku to disrupt the peace initiative occurring between the Republic and the Separatist Alliance. Under orders from General Greivous, six demolition droids infiltrated the power generator, killing the engineers and setting themselves to self destruct. As they did so, they caused the generator to self destruct, setting off fires across Coruscant and cutting power to large sections of the city-planet. After it was confirmed to the Republic Senate the attack was committed by the Separatists, the peace process fell apart.
