Tzenkethi War

The Tzenkethi War was a military conflict waged between the Tzenkethi Coalition and the United Federation of Planets in the early 2360s.

The USS Okinawa, under Captain James Leyton and first officer Benjamin Sisko, was engaged in action against the Tzenkethi during the war. During the war, the Okinawa pursued three Tzenkethi raiders into an asteroid belt.

Several members of the Okinawa crew died during the war.

Doctor Rebecca Emmanuelli was captured by the Tzenkethi during the war and held as a prisoner for four years. Because of her medical skills, the Tzenkethi listed her as dead after the armistice to avoid returning her to the Federation. After the civilian group Liberation Watch discovered evidence she was in fact alive, Starfleet dispatched the USS Saratoga to investigate. Facing renewed hositilites, the Tzenkethi released the doctor. Nanietta Bacco's son-in-law was a civilian relief worker during the war. The Tzenkethi War had ended by 2364.
