With Gazzera's surrender, Gondar became the last area in Ethiopia under Italian control.
The market in Saïo was reopened three days after hostilities had ceased and Belgian engineers repaired the Saïo-Gambela road.
At Gazzera's request, Gilliaert guaranteed the Eritrean Askari safe passage to British prisoner of war camps in the east and sent Congolese guards to protect them from Ethiopian retaliation.
The Belgian force quickly returned to the Congo with their spoils of war.
The siege was the first big victory for the Free Belgian Forces and greatly improved their morale.

George Weller of the Chicago Daily News travelled to the front and interviewed participants in the Belgo-Congolese expedition.
He then wrote several articles about the campaign and wired them back to the United States from Léopoldville.
The Belgian government reproduced his reporting in a pamphlet that was subsequently distributed, but it received little attention.
