Despite the missed opportunities, the fresh reinforcements, and the strong defensive entrenchments, by late afternoon, the British once again were on the verge of a breakthrough. 59th Scinde Rifles (Frontier Force) and 1st Manchester Regiment of the 8th (Jullundur) Brigade succeeded in capturing the first two lines of trenches of the Dujalia Redoubt. However, with no reserves left to exploit the success, the two battalions could do nothing more than hang on to their gains. Slowly but surely, the Ottoman battalions counter-attacked with bayonets and grenades, which were in short supply on the British side, forcing the Manchester's and Rifles to retreat in the early evening. Of the 2,301 men of the 8th Brigade present, 1,174 were casualties by the end of the day.

In all, the Tigris Corps suffered almost 4,000 casualties. Through the night, the British forces fell back to a rendezvous position approximately 8,000 yards from the Dujalia position. When no counter-attack materialized from the Dujalia, Aylmer ordered his troops back across the river, ending the battle.

英国軍によるドゥジャイラ要塞奇襲に１日を描いています。

＞Despite the missed opportunities, the fresh reinforcements, and the strong defensive entrenchments, by late afternoon, the British once again were on the verge of a breakthrough. 59th Scinde Rifles (Frontier Force) and 1st Manchester Regiment of the 8th (Jullundur) Brigade succeeded in capturing the first two lines of trenches of the Dujalia Redoubt.
⇒逸した好機、（敵軍の）新鮮な強化隊、および強力な防御用塹壕にもかかわらず、午後遅くまでに英国軍は再度突破の戸口にあった。第８（ジュルンドゥル）旅団（所属）の、第59スィンデ・ライフル銃隊（前線軍）と第1マンチェスター連隊とが、ドゥジャイラ要塞付塹壕の最初の２壕を略奪することに成功した。

⇒しかし、成功を手に入れるためには何らの予備もないので、当の２個大隊としては、粘り強く勝利に執着するよりほかに何もすることができなかった。オスマントルコ軍大隊はゆっくりではあるが確実に銃剣と、英国側には不足していた手榴弾とで反撃し、宵のうちにマンチェスター隊とライフル銃隊に退却を迫ってきた。その日の終りまでに、第８旅団所属の死傷者は2,301人中の1,174人であった。

＞In all, the Tigris Corps suffered almost 4,000 casualties. Through the night, the British forces fell back to a rendezvous position approximately 8,000 yards from the Dujalia position. When no counter-attack materialized from the Dujalia, Aylmer ordered his troops back across the river, ending the battle.
⇒全体を合わせると、チグリス隊は約4,000の死傷者数を被った。夜の間に、英国軍はドゥジャイラから約8,000ヤードの会合地点に後退した。ドゥジャイラからの反撃が全くなくなった時、エールマーは軍隊に戦いを終えて渡河し、戻ってくるように命じた。
