I dont know if people have guessed this, known this, or dont have a clue at all, so dont get angry at me if this is just something people know.
I think New Mombasa was attacked to wipe out the entire city and then uncover the artifact in the trailer. Once I saw this, I sat and thought about it. So why would the covenant only attack this city, and the only reason I found was to uncover that giant artifact.
