Clan Ghost Bear's [[Omicron Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Omicron Galaxy]] assigned the [[69th Provisional Garrison (Clan Ghost Bear)|Sixty-ninth Provisional Garrison Cluster]] and the [[1st Bear Regulars (Clan Ghost Bear)|First]] and [[7th Bear Regulars (Clan Ghost Bear)|Seventh Bear Regulars]] to the liberation of Cebalrai, with the three units deploying in mid-August.<ref name="JHS3076p47">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 47: "Cebalrai Free, But at What Cost?"</ref>

Having established landing zones, the three units swiftly pushed the defending forces from the Cebalrai Protectorate Militia and their supporting mercenaries off the continent of Lennori and continued to pursue them across Sarrina. The pursuit ended with the battle for control of New Wade, the planetary capital, where elements of the Cebalrai Protectorate Militia fought for three days in a bloody battle against the Ghost Bear forces. New Wade was secured by the Ghost Bears on the 18th of August and the government reestablished; concerns about rogue Blakist units and supporters led to the First remaining in place to both act as guards and recuperate from their losses.<ref name="JHS3076p47"/>

The Seventh Bear Regulars and the Sixty-ninth PGC continued to harry the retreating Cebalrai Protectorate Militia and their allies, pursuing them back to Dragga, where the Blakists still controlled the three main cities. The main Blakist strength was at Kamrin, a heavily industrial city, and the Ghost Bear forces were driving deep into the city when the Blakists acted out of desperation and detonated a chain of five neutron bombs that had been concealed under the city. The results were devastating for the Seventh Regulars and the Sixty-ninth PGC, who were collectively reduced to just a handful of survivors.<ref name="JHS3076p47"/><ref name="JHS:Tp18">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 18: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp54">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 54: "The Jihad in Review"</ref>
