The events of the battle isn't canon, however, the diorama being part of the John 117 monument is, I think. Don't quote me on that though.
The diorama as part of the monument is canon, the battle that is depicted is canon.
Well, just searched it up on halopedian.
"The Second Battle of New Mombasa is considered to be non-canon; it was part of Microsoft's Halo 3 Ad Campaign and not Bungie's work. Microsoft at that time had no control or idea of Halo 3's story, and therefore it is not present in said canon. Also, it does not appear in Halo 3 or Halo: Uprising."
So it's "supposed to symbolically represent the Human-Covenant War as a whole, and John-117's sacrifice for humanity."
That makes sense.
