Kizingo
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Kizingo is a district of the port city of New Mombasa, Kenya on Earth. It is located on the southeast side of Mombasa island, near the ONI Alpha Site. Kizingo encompasses at least the sectors 3, 4 and 10 of New Mombasa. Kizingo Boulevard runs through part of this district.[1]
History
During the start of the 21st century, Kizingo was the prime residential area of Mombasa.[2]
During the Battle of Mombasa on October 20, 2552, Kizingo was the site of a fierce battle between the United Nations Space Command (UNSC) and the Covenant. An Orbital Drop Shock Trooper (ODST), Michael Crespo, drove a Scorpion tank along Kizingo Boulevard, to the UNSC Rally point at the entrance to the ONI Alpha Site. He encountered heavy Covenant armor on the way. The UNSC Marines later made a stand against incoming Covenant forces at the rally point, before joining forces further entrenched in the ONI complex.[1]
