Al Jafr was one of the worlds to rise up in rebellion during Operation CATALOG, a wide-ranging operation conducted by the Lyran Commonwealth government to detect and disrupt interstellar criminal gangs operating in the Commonwealth. The government of Al Jafr at the time had been thoroughly compromised by just such a criminal syndicate and was effectively a puppet organization; when the Nineteenth Arcturan Guards deployed to the planet to put down the rebellion, the criminals were able to put up a stiff defense using a not insubstantial number of BattleMechs that the Guards didn't expect to find on the planet. Thanks to those 'Mechs - believed by the Commonwealth government to have been sourced from illegal concerns in the Rim Worlds Republic - and the criminals bribing or misleading two companies-worth of personnel from the Guards to turn against their comrades, the Nineteenth suffered badly. Margrave Lionel Khan deployed his personal troops, the Khan Dragoons, to Al Jafr, ostensibly to reinforce the Nineteenth while they waited for replacement personnel and equipment, but the presence of the Dragoons was resented by the Nineteenth, who believed that the Dragoons were there to report on the Nineteenth. The Nineteenth's suspicions may have been correct, given the reports of the Nineteenth resorting to savage tactics during their campaign to put down the rebellion, including such tactics as putting entire villages to the torch in an attempt to smoke out rebel forces.[30]
