Using the Amaterasu incident as a rationale, the Earth Federation stages a massive coup d'état within the Kingdom, and demands the surrender of the Amaterasu.

Shimei Yuuki, the only Kibi commissioned officer still on board, stays behind to ensure the success of Sinon's final plan. (Source: Wikipedia)
