Invasion of Bestine

The Invasion of Bestine was a series of ongoing sieges between Imperial and Rebel forces in the capital city of Bestine on the planet Tatooine during the Galactic Civil War. These sieges took place sometime following the Battle of Yavin in 0 BBY, but before the Battle of Hoth. The plan to invade Bestine and other cities throughout the galaxy was concocted by Rebel Alliance. Imperial Intelligence intercepted the plan, allowing the Empire to prepare for a proper defense. The invasion culminated into a series of violent sieges between the two factions, resulting in a back and forth occupation of the capital throughout the Galactic Civil War.
