Why “en” as a pronoun without a “de”?

Neither le conflit est aujourd’hui à son quatrième jour nor le conflit est aujourd’hui en son quatrième jour are idiomatic. What might have been written is le conflit est aujourd’hui dans son quatrième jour.

The sentence you read uses the en être à construction which has already been discussed here: Elle n’en est pas à son premier geste – what do "elle" and "en" here refer to?
