Sustained fighting began in the early hours and by about 11:00 on 4 August, the Austrian, German and Ottoman force had pushed the two Australian brigades back to a point where the 52nd (Lowland) Division in their trenches were able to attack the attackers' right flank, and the New Zealand Mounted Rifle and 5th Mounted Brigades arrived in time to extend the Australian Light Horse's line. The Ottoman advance was stopped by the combined Allied fire from the infantry and mounted troops, deep sand, the mid summer mid day heat and thirst. In mid summer desert conditions, the British infantry were unable to move effectively to pursue the retreating columns the next day and alone, the Anzac Mounted Division was unable to attack and capture Von Kressenstein's large force which made an orderly retreat to Katia and eventually back to their base at Bir el Abd. Bir el Abd was abandoned on 12 August 1916 after fierce fighting, during an attack by the Anzac Mounted Division on 9 August, at the extremity of British Empire lines of communication. This was the first substantial Allied victory against the Ottoman Empire in World War I, ending the Defence of the Suez Canal campaign. The Canal was never again threatened by land forces during the remainder of the war. The Allies then went on the offensive for seven months, pushing the Ottoman Army back across the Sinai Peninsula, fighting the Battles of Magdhaba and Rafa before being stopped on Ottoman soil in southern Palestine at the First Battle of Gaza in March 1917.

⇒8月4日早朝に始まった戦いが持久戦となっていたが、11時頃までにはオーストリア・ドイツ・オスマントルコ軍がオーストラリア軍２個旅団をある地点まで押し込んでいた。しかしその地点では、塹壕内に第52（ローランド）師団が進撃者の右側面を攻撃することができたし、オーストラリア軽騎兵隊の展開に合わせてニュージーランド騎馬ライフル銃隊および第5騎馬旅団が到着した。

⇒その翌日、英国軍歩兵隊が真夏の砂漠という条件下で退却する縦隊を追跡したが、効果的に動くことはできなかった。また、アンザック軍騎馬隊師団は、単独でフォン・クレッセンシュタインの大軍隊を攻撃・攻略しようとしたが、不可能であった。その大軍隊は整然とカティアに退却し、結局ビル・エル・アブドの自軍の基地に戻った。（しかし）大英帝国連携戦線の先端にいたアンザック軍騎馬隊師団による8月9日からの攻撃の中で、熾烈な戦いの後、1916年8月12日ビル・エル・アブドは放棄された。

⇒これは、第一次世界大戦でのオスマントルコ帝国に対する連合側の最初にして実質的な勝利であり、スエズ運河の防御野戦の終結であった。本戦争の残り期間の間でも、運河が再び陸軍部隊に脅かされることはなかった。連合国はそれからの7か月間攻撃に赴き、1917年3月にガザの第1回対戦において南パレスチナのオスマントルコ領土上で足を止められるまで、シナイ半島を横切りながらオスマントルコ軍を押し返し、「マグダハバとラファの戦い」を闘ったのである。
