Macedonian forces started to demine the fields at 8 a.m. and attacked with one mechanized battalion with support of artillery[4] villages: Slupčane, Ljubodrag, Lopate and Orizare. At around 2 p.m., the operation was stopped by orders of Boris Trajkovski over the phone call to general Pande Petrovski.[5] The Macedonian army claimed that 30 militants were killed.[6][7][8]
