Mission to Sanjin

In 4 ABY, just before the Battle of Endor, the Rebel Alliance sent Special Forces on a mission to the planet Sanjin.
==The mission==
In 4 ABY, the Rebel Alliance sent a squadron of SpecForces on a covert operation at Sanjin. Lieutenant Ma'w'shiye, a decorated veteran of countless Rebel missions, was part of the operation.
For unknown reasons, Ma'w'shiye betrayed his squadron and stole the team's escape craft. His heartless desertion resulted in the immediate execution by the Empire of eleven Rebel agents integral to Alliance activities near the Core Worlds. Ma'w'shiye's betrayal was expensive to the Alliance, as it costed more lives and equipment than any other operation its size.
==Aftermath==
From that point on, Ma'w'shiye turned against his previous partners and allies. He unsuccessfully tried to assassinate his former comrades of Eclipse Team, who had become officers of the New Republic. He managed to kill other New Republic agents including Candra, Klepish and Saloor, as well as at least seventy-two non-affiliated civilians. New Republic analysts were surprised at this low figure, as Ma'w'shiye was such a skilled sharpshooter that he could have killed many more if he wished.
New Republic Intelligence confirmed that Ma'w'shiye had not joined the Galactic Empire. Nonetheless, the New Republic branded him as a threat to its members, offering a 70,000-credit reward for his capture. A New Republic SpecForces team was formed to track and capture Ma'w'shiye, and the survivors of his assassination attempts were assigned to lead it.
