The seizure of Moorja occurred in 4 ABY when the New Republic wrested control of the Inner Rim planet Moorja from the control of Warlord Sander Delvardus.
During the battle, a fleet of EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigates, supported by Y-wing bombers, destroyed the Thalassa, a Praetor Mark II-class battlecruiser.[1]
Following their victory, the Republic established a permanent base on the planet, from which it launched strikes against Imperial targets in the following years.[2]
