The Battle for Cairo was a major battle fought between GDI and Nod at the end of the Second Tiberium War, with GDI aiming to stop the World Altering Missile from launching. In addition McNeil's forces had to stop three ICBM launchers which were targetting the GDSS Philadelphia.

Incidentally, GDI forces were also able to recover three Mammoth Tanks an old GDI base back from TWI. After the battle GDI surrounded the pyramid. The battle was hideously long. The WAM was stopped and the Tacitus was secured in the Kodiak. Umagon was given the vaccine. Kanes body however, was never found when GDI returned to examine the remains of the Pyramid Temple.
