By July [[3077]], the [[Farstar Pirates]] were conducting the fourth raid on Nowhere since the beginning of 3077, and the seventh raid the Farstar Pirates had conducted within the boundaries of the [[Qandahar Prefecture]]. The July raid saw a [[company]] of Pirate [[BattleMech]]s land outside the Barryland spaceport and proceeded to start looting the various warehouse holding imports and exports, using a dozen cargo vehicles to move the loot back to their [[DropShip]]. The Nowhere Militia mustered a lance of 'Mechs and a company of [[combat vehicles]] outside the spaceport and proceeded to engage the Pirates, but the Pirates were able to hold the Militia off long enough to execute a fighting withdrawal while their transports finished loading. When the Pirates left, the Militia had lost two 'Mechs and a lance of vehicles, with their remaining forces having taken significant amounts of damage; the Pirates had recovered all of their losses other than a single ''[[Panther]]''. It was highlighted that Governor [[Ahano Michi]] had recently ordered a lance of ''[[Quasit]]s'' to shore up the local defenses, but the lack of a dedicated [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] presence in the area attracted criticism in local media for the perceived lack of response from central government following the departure of many DCMS units to serve in [[Operation SCOUR]].<ref name="JHS:Tp54+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 54-55, "Nowhere Raided"</ref>
