In addition, they killed any remaining Sangheili troops still stationed on or above the planet. On the same day, they started excavating the Forerunner structure by [[glassing]] the planet surface, starting from the crater created by the in-atmosphere [[Slipstream Space|slipspace]] jump of Regret's ship. For the next two weeks, more and more Covenant reinforcements sent by Truth would arrive, securing the planet for Truth's arrival which would happen nearly a month later. During this period, fleets such as the [[Fleet of Furious Redemption]] would join Truth's Fleet and the battle raging in [[Sol System]]. While maintaining a significant presence in orbit, the fleet deployed ground forces to multiple targets around the globe, including [[Mount Erebus]], the [[Yucatan Peninsula]] and [[Havana]], [[Republic of Cuba|Cuba]]. The SPARTAN-II [[Blue Team]] fought the Covenant forces in multiple operations on and around Earth, halting most of their excavation operations. On November 3, after the [[Battle of Havana]], one of the fleet's ships, the ''[[Bloodied Spirit]]'', was captured by the Blue Team and taken to [[Onyx]].
