After the Rebels evacuation at their outpost at Gelgelar, the Rebels were forced to transfer the many seriously wounded that needed immediate medical attention to the Medical Frigate Redemption before they could rejoin the Rebel Fleet in the Airam Sector. Rogue and Gold Squadrons were assigned in the protecting of the transfer operation of wounded and medical supplies to the Medical Frigate. The YT-1300 Lanigiro was the first to arrive and dock with the frigate, after that it stayed on station to assist if any trouble were to arise. Soon after the Lambda-class Shuttle Compassion arrived to transfer its wounded passengers. With that, the ISD Nemesis came out of hyperspace and began to deploy its TIEs. Both Rogue and Gold Squadrons headed towards the ISD Nemesis to engage its starfighters. The TIE Bombers targeted the Lambda Shuttle Compassion with proton torpedoes until it made its jump into hyperspace, with that they turned their attention on the newly arrived Medium Transports. During the battle Assault Gunboats hypered into the area to take out the Rebel's medical frigate, but were unfortunately thwarted. Throughout the entire battle, Rebel transports were hypering out of the area. After the Imperial starfighters were defeated, the ISD Nemesis moved to engage the Rebel medical frigate, but it caused little damage, instead the medical frigate caused significant shield damage to the ISD Nemesis shields due to the fact the frigate was under the ISD and that the ISD could not fire back. Unfortunately, the frigate was able to hyper out of the area along with the rest of the Rebels Z-95 Headhunters and the YT-1300 Lanigiro.
