Operation Wicked Glove was a proposed but ultimately scrapped military campaign to attack and capture the Citadel during the First Contact War. Proposed by Joseph H. Garrong after the Battle of Charon, the operation, if successful, would allow them to capture the capital of the turian goverment (the intel they had led them to believe the turians were the only species in the galaxy) and force them into surrender. The plan was almost immediately dismissed by the Systems Alliance parliament, as they didn't have the resources or logistical manpower to pull off such an operation. After the Liberation of Shanxi however, they reconsidered the plan, only for the Council to step in a week later and end the war.
