Through that night and the next day, the group repulsed eleven counterattacks by German troops. Aliev killed more than 80 German soldiers in hand-to-hand combat and by fire from his machine gun. In later battles for the expansion of the bridgehead, Aliev provided important military intelligence about the German forces.
