Bombardment of Bosph

In 3 BBY, the Imperial Navy of the Galactic Empire subjected the planet Bosph to repeated large-scale orbital bombardment, causing effectively irreparable damage and attempting genocide on the species that inhabited the world.
The survivors were kept under an ongoing quarantine and chose to dis-remember the Empire in response, a grave insult in their society that meant that the species refused to acknowledge that the Empire had ever existed. The historian Beaumont Kin wrote about the bombardment in hisStar Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire in 35 ABY.
==Behind the scenes==
In the current Star Wars canon, the bombardment of Bosph was mentioned in the 2024 reference book Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, which was written by Dr. Chris Kempshall. The bombardment originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it was first mentioned in "Smugglers of the Outer Rim,"an article written by Doug Shuler and published in the fifth issue of the Star Wars Adventure Journal in February 1995.
