A B-58 SAM turret launched missiles six miles from the border with Caltharus, MBE, which made impact less than a minute later. The plane was struck in Biramuran airspace at 41,000ft, and debris from the plane scattered across the Caltharusian countryside over a 11 mile radius, injuring at least one person and damaging farmsteads and other minor infrastructure.

The attack was instigated because, according to Riannar Karmer, Remis Posol was arriving in Sani Bursil to share state secrets after Operation Wraith, a successful Morstaybishlian cyber attack into a classified Biramuran network. Following the attack, Biramuran High Command failed to communicate for over 24 hours, leading to Morstaybishlia amassing an armed forces contingent of over 40,000 troops. According to a wide array of sources, this incident was the closest Aurora had come to a large scale conflict since the Auroran-Pacific War.
