The destruction of Sernpidal, also known as the First Battle of Sernpidal, occurred in 25 ABY when the Praetorite Vong—an advance force of the extra-galactic Yuuzhan Vong invaders—employed the tactic Yo'gand's Core, pulling the moon Dobido to Sernpidal's surface. A small team led by Han Solo and Chewbacca successfully rescued a number of Sernpidalians during the destruction.
