Explanation

Abhimanyu, son of Arjuna, learned how to enter the chakravyuha (military formation) while in his mother Subhadra's womb, but the explanation about exiting was interrupted. He entered the formation during the Kurukshetra war but was trapped and killed because he didn't know how to escape. Jayadratha helped block the exit.
