The Clones have sent the powerful 77th Armoured Brigade to Lornaca Melnig where an insurgency has been continuing for years. Recent upsurges in violence, with allegations of weapon shipments by MBO-New Sparta (which MBO-NS strenuously deny of course) are said to have pushed the Lornaca Melnig Territorial Army to it's limit hence the need for reinforcements.
Two COIN regiments of the Clone Air Force are also being sent. It is rumoured the Clone Defence Forces plan a high intensity and sustained operation against the Lornacan Fighters group.
