Joint Occupation Zone

The Joint Occupation Zones, colloquially referred to as J-O Zones, are regions of space cooperatively held by both the Unified Earth Government and Arbiter Thel 'Vadam's Swords of Sanghelios. Prior to or during 2555, Edward Buck participated in reconnaissance and strike operations in one such zone as part of Operation: KINETIC STORM. Between May 6 and June 1, 2557, Shadow of Intent participated in an operation with UNSC Navy elements against pirates in a Joint Occupation Zone. In early 2558, there was an increase of Jiralhanae raids on these territories due to the Jiralhanae's dwindling resources.
