An air strike by lynx was requested and the 'Pafurians' were silenced. (Operation Uric). The Rhodesian mine planting efforts appeared to be bearing results as the enemy reported an explosion on the Maxaila/Domasse road in the Mapungane area.

The RLI mine laying teams began their tasks. Air movement from Rhodesia to the admin box consisted in transportation of water, rations, food, ammunition and fuel. 4 vehicles were seen heading for Maxaila. The most significant event of the day was electronic jamming experienced on H.F. and the command and control net at about 17-30 hrs. (Operation Uric)
1 Sep 1979 Maxaila
At 1200 the Frelimo operator at Maxaila reported helicopter movements in his area and requested reinforcements. In reply, Mapai (the controlling centre) ordered Maxaila to search the area and that troops from Chigubo had also been ordered to investigate the area of the enemy noise. From these intercepts the Rhodesians were aware that the enemy at Maxaila had picked up the transit movement of aircraft to the admin box, although ready to react the base was not compromised. (Operation Uric)
