- "To galactic north, Republic forces counterattacked, aided by Zabrak military units, winning key victoriesat Iridonia and Ithor. That prevented the Mandalorians from executing a pincer movement against Coruscant, and allowed the Republic a corridor for reinforcing the Taris front."
- ―From Vilnau Teupt's "Industry, Honor, Savagery: Shaping the Mandalorian Soul", 24 ABY
The Second Battle of Iridonia occurred during the Mandalorian Wars in the year 3,963 BBY.[source?] After conquering Iridonia during the initial stages of the invasion of the Galactic Republic, the Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders held it for only a short time before being driven off the planet by the Republic Military, which was reinforced by Zabrak soldiers.[1]
The battle would turn out to be one of the few victories for the Republic in the days before the Revanchists joined the war effort. As such, it helped to bolster the Republic's supply lines, and it greatly improved troop morale during the early days of the war.
