Zone six

Zone six was an expanse of the asteroid field that surrounded the planet Bothawui in the Mid Rim. Zone six was located next to zone five. During the Battle of Bothawui, an engagement of the Clone Wars between the Confederacy of Independent Systems and Galactic Republic, in 22 BBY, General Grievous led his Confederate fleet of Munificent-class star frigates through zone six to reach and attack Jedi General Anakin Skywalker's task force of Venator-class Star Destroyers. Aboard Skywalker's flagship, the Resolute, a clone trooper reported the Separatist fleet's movement while Resolute command tracked the enemy force on screens. Unknown to Grievous, Skywalker had allowed for the frigates to pass through zone six and beyond as it meant the starships would be outmaneuvered by a force of All Terrain Tactical Enforcers hidden on the surrounding asteroids.
