The Bombing of Keldbae was, despite the name, the sustained bombing of the whole planet of Mandalore by the Killistian Republic between 7 September 240 ABY and 10 May 241 ABY, in the Super Galactic War. While the "Bombing" hit many towns and cities across the country, it began with the bombing of Keldbae for 57 consecutive nights. By the end of May 241, over 43,000 civilians, half of them in Keldbae, had been killed by bombing and more than a million houses were destroyed or damaged in Keldbae alone.
