The second is on October 28 at Amba Sel, when troops under the Imam not only defeat but disperse the Ethiopian army and capture items of the Imperial regalia.

These victories allow the Somalis to cross the Walaqa River and enter the Ethiopian highlands, where they begin to sack and burn numerous churches, including Atronsa Maryam, where the remains of several Emperors had been interred.

The country is looted by Ahmad's forces, who destroy several Christian monuments and oppress the non-Muslim Amhara and Tigray.
