Angkatan laut berlayar dari Trincomalee tanggal 14 Juni 1945.[3] Kapal yang dikerahkan adalah kapal induk pengiring HMS Stalker, HMS Khedive, HMS Ameer;[1] kapal jelajah HMS Suffolk dan HMS Royalist;[1] dan lima kapal perusak, HMS Rotherham, HMS Relentless, HMS Redoubt, HMS Roebuck, dan HMS Racehorse.[2] Kapal induk mengangkut pesawat Grumman F6F Hellcat milik 804 Squadron dan 808 Squadron, dan pesawat Supermarine Seafire milik 809 Squadron.[4]

Pesawat hanya melakukan mengambil foto udara di Malaya selatan selama beberapa hari pertama operasi, 18 dan 19 Juni.[2][4] Seorang saksi menjelaskan bahwa pilot pesawat tempur "sudah capek melakukan CAPS terus-menerus, tetapi Komodor Oliver meyakinkan mereka bahwa akan ada saatnya mereka bertempur".[4] Pada tanggal 20 Juni, mereka melakukan serangan pertama ke lapangan terbang di Lhokseumawe, Medan, dan Binjai. Hasilnya dilaporkan sebagai berikut:

Landasan pacu dirusak, bangunan, prasarana, hangar, lokomotif, kereta, dan pesawat yang sedang parkir ditembaki semua. Tidak ada perlawanan di udara, tetapi satu pesawat Hellcat jatuh karena tembakan flak di Medan - satu-satunya musibah yang dialami 808 Sq. karena pilotnya adalah komandan mereka, Lt. Cdr. O. F. Wheatley, RNVR. Pesawat Hellcat miliknya tampak terbakar dan kehilangan ekor. Itu adalah penerbangan pertamanya setelah ia mulai memimpin skadron ini.[4]
