Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

O King, when the Yādavas heard news of this from Śrī Nārada, they became angry. Urged on by King Ugrasena, they prepared for war against the Kurus. KB 10.68.13 The great sage Nārada immediately carried the news to the Yadu dynasty that Sāmba had been arrested and told them the whole story. The members of the Yadu dynasty became very angry at Sāmba’s being arrested, and improperly so by six warriors. Now, with the permission of the head of the Yadu dynasty, King Ugrasena, they prepared to attack the capital city of the Kuru dynasty.

Purport

Śrīla Prabhupāda writes: “The great sage Nārada immediately carried the news to the Yadu dynasty that Sāmba was arrested and told them the whole story. The members of the Yadu dynasty became very angry at Sāmba's being arrested, and improperly so by six warriors. Now, with the permission of the head of the Yadu dynasty's king, Ugrasena, they prepared to attack the capital city of the Kuru dynasty.”

Purport (Jiva Goswami)

The Yādavas heard about this from Nārada. They were urged on by Ugrasena, not by Kṛṣṇa since it was not proper to make such efforts for his son in the midst of elders, relatives and friends, and he also knew the intention of Balarāma. He also respected that he had given control of the kingdom to Ugrasena.

Purport (Sanatana Goswami)

The Yādavas heard about Sāmba’s capture from Nārada. They were urged on by Ugrasena, not by Kṛṣṇa, since he knew Balarāma’s intentions, or he wanted to make Ugrasena famous. Balarāma mentions this later. O king! Śukadeva calls out in joy. Or you know the nature of a king.
