Las balsas que llevaron a los seguidores del Imán fueron recibidas por los soldados en tankwa, las embarcaciones hechas papiro, no pudieron detener a las balsas atacantes. Dado que todos los defensores se encontraban en tankwas, una vez que el imán y sus seguidores fueron dejados atrás, desembarcaron sin oposición en la isla y se quemó la iglesia de Iyasus.
