The Bombing of Pho Ph’eah was an event that was cited as a major turning point in the Third Sith Empire’s war effort against the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order during the Great Territorial War. The Jedi High Council was given what they believed to be reliable information by Jedi Master Kit Corwin Rendar stating that Sith forces had infiltrated the major technological and manufacturing centers on Pho Ph'eah and that they were attempting to build up a far more massive army than they already had. With the approval of the Galactic Senate, the Jedi Order and the Republic military launched an orbital bombardment of the planet in an effort to take out the Sith forces on the surface.
