Battle of Khov

The Battle of Khov was a battle between the forces of the Corummese government and the communist rebels of the Army of Common Men. Following the communist summer offensive in 1996 and the capture of Khov, government forces prepared Operation Zydron to push them back, retake the city and destroy their ad-hoc 'Khov Socialist Republic'. The battle is remembered for the brutality of both sides during the fierce urban fighting and the tremendous toll on civilian lives. In the aftermath of its defeat at Khov, the Army of Common Men was spent as a military force of any significance and returned to clandestinity.
