During the Raid on the Suez Canal in February 1915 part of the attacking force had moved through Nekhl. By February 1917 the Ottoman garrisons in the region were well behind the EEF front line. As the occupation of Southern Palestine began these isolated forces were attacked and pushed back into Ottoman Palestine. (en)
