The Zeon Principality declares war against the Federation, simultaneously launching surprise attacks on Zarn Province in Side 1 (L5), Hatte Province in Side 2 (L4) and Mua Province in Side 4 (L5). Nuclear, Biological & Chemical (NBC) weapons are used indiscriminately and 2.8 billion lives (25% of the total human population) are lost as the EFF garrisons and the colonies that house them are destroyed. 06:31—Side 2 (L4) Bunch 13 security chief Rosenberg receives a coded message that the Zeon are mobilizing, but the line is cut before he can hear the code signifying that an attack has been initiated. 07:00—Zeon forces begin attacking Side 2 (L4). 07:45—The EFF receives word of the Zeon attack. 08:02—Side 2 (L4) Bunch 13 is completely destroyed. 0079.01.04 Operation British, the dropping of the depopulated Side 2 (L4) Bunch 8 (Island Iffish) onto the EFF Jaburo GHQ via a slingshot orbit around the Moon, goes awry and destroys Sydney, Australia, instead. 0079.01.05 The EFF concentrates its available forces to counterattack the ZMF Space Attack Force. 0079.01.08 The EFF 4th Space Fleet, commanded by Fleet Admiral (O-9) Tianem, engages the ZMF Colony Escort Fleet.
