Khitomer is a planet in the Star Trek universe.
Khitomer conference
In 2293, Khitomer was selected as the neutral venue to host the Klingon-Federation peace talks following the Praxis incident. At the time none of the major powers seem to have staked a claim to the planet[1].
Khitomer massacre
By 2346, Khitomer was home to a Klingon colony of around 4000. At this point in time the Romulans were officially allied with the Klingon Empire, yet using the cover of this alliance to weaken the Empire through sneak attacks. One of these hit Khitomer, aided by the traitor Ja'rod allowing the Romulans to remotely disable the colony's shields.
Only two survivors were found among the ruins by the Federation vessel responding to the colony's distress call, one of them an infant Worf. Twenty years later, an additional group of survivors was found to have been held prisoner by the Romulans. At this point, Khitomer was considered to be within Romulan territory[2].
Later developments
Khitomer appears to haver regained its status as a diplomatic neutral ground during the Dominion War, hosting a diplomatic meeting between Admiral Ross and the Klingon Chancellor[3].
