The Battle of Asmara was an early engagement of the Human-Covenant War. It ended in a Covenant victory and the glassing of Asmara.
The Battle[edit]
The fighting on Asmara was brutal. Gage Yevgenny's ODST fireteam took part in it. He recalled that Mason and ten other ODSTs were killed by a plasma-sword wielding Elite before he stopped its rampage with a near point-blank shot from a rocket launcher.[2]
The Assembly reported that Asmara was lost as of the beginning of 2530.[3]
