The repeated confrontations have taken their toll on the dwindling and ever-divided resources of the Exarchate, which, with assistance from its Berber allies of king Kusaila, has reached the peak of resistance.
Its victory over the forces of Uqba Ibn Nafia at the Battle of Biskra causes the Muslim forces to retreat to Egypt, giving the Exarchate what will prove to be a decade's respite.
