During the battle the serious pressure from Ottoman forces advancing to relieve Gaza from the east had been expected and had begun to make an impact since 16:00. However, in view of the late start to the battle and the threat from these reinforcements, Dobell, the commander of Eastern Force, after talking with Chetwode, the commander of Desert Column, decided that unless Gaza was captured by nightfall, the fighting must stop and the mounted force withdrawn. By dusk, some of the strong Ottoman Army trenches and redoubts defending Gaza, remained in their control. The British had fired some 304 shells and 150,000 rounds of small arms ammunition, while their infantry casualties were substantial. On the day of battle, 26 March 1917, the sun set at 18:00 (Cairo time). This occurred before Desert Column knew of the capture of Ali Muntar. Therefore, with the approval of Dobell, at 18:10 Chetwode commanding Desert Column, ordered Chauvel to withdraw the mounted force and retire across the Wadi Ghuzzeh.

⇒戦いの間、ガザを救援するために東方から進軍するオスマントルコ軍団による重圧が予想されて、16時からそれが緊迫度を増してきた。しかし東部軍団の指揮官ドーベルは、この戦いの始まりが遅かったことと、これらの強化隊の脅威に鑑みて、砂漠縦隊の指揮官チェトウォードと話し合った後に、ガザが夕暮れまでに占領されない限り、戦いを止めて騎馬軍団を撤退させることを決めた。

⇒夕暮れまでには、ガザを守っている強力なオスマントルコ方面軍の塹壕と砦のいくつかは彼らの支配の中に落ちた。英国軍は約304発の砲弾と150,000発の小銃弾を発射攻撃したが、他方彼らの歩兵連隊の犠牲者も相当なものだった。1917年3月26日という戦いの日は、日没が18時（カイロ時間）であった。砂漠縦隊がアリ・ムンターの攻略を知る前に、これ（日没）が起こった。したがって砂漠縦隊を指揮するチェトウォードは、ドーベルの承認を得て、18時10分ショーヴェルに騎馬軍団を撤退し、ワジ・グゼフを渡って退去させるよう命令した。
