The next day, tactics were changed, with the pilots deciding to attack from altitudes as low as 60 m, releasing all of their weapons in a single pass.

A team of technicians later arrived on board a C-47, and repaired the aircraft, which was flown out the next day. Despite the ENT's efforts, Zouar was overrun by the FROLINAT on 6 July.

This caused the French forces to stop the bombardment. The foreigners were then evacuated by French transport aircraft, followed by the French troops present there. This caused the ENT to completely cease its operations: without access to the French personnel that was operating its aircraft, it was de facto disbanded.
