Following the battle, prototypes of the [[Visor color|Rex VISR]] were tested by [[UNSC Marine Corps]] units to track down [[Jiralhanae]] holdouts on the planet. At some point between [[2555]] and [[2558]], UNSC [[Central Command]] Region One entered [[Operation: SENTRY|negotiations]] with [[Covenant fleet]] remnants, with [[Olympia Vale]] serving as an advisor.<ref name="H5GLtd">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians Limited Edition]]''', ''Spartan Locke's Classified Orders''</ref>


During the battle, the freighter ''[[Floral Express]]'' fled the planet while carrying colonial refugees. Presumably following a random [[slipspace]] trajectory per the [[Cole Protocol]], the ship arrived near [[Installation 03]] in the [[Khaphrae system]] on [[2552#October|October 8th]].<ref name="11h">''[[Eleventh Hour reports]] - #5''</ref> This would lead the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] to uncover the [[Composer]] after the war, which would be secured on nearby [[Ivanoff Station]].

In [[2558]], the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s [[SPARTAN-IV program|SPARTAN-IV]] complement used a simulation of the Casbah theater for their War Games training to honor the sacrifice of the SPARTAN-IIIs who died there.<ref name="landf"/>
