[II] yes

These two sentences are paraphrases of each other because they are telling the same story but using different words and sentence structures. Both sentences describe rebels attempting to enter a camp on the east bank of Rawda Island and being stopped by weapons like naphtha artillery and arrows. The main difference is just the order of the words and phrases, but the meaning is the same.<|im_end|>

 Hi there! Let me help you with this question.

So, we have two sentences here:

1. Together , the rebels attempted to cross the eastern bank of the Rawda Island and enter Yalbugha 's camp , but were rejected by Naphtha - artillery and arrows .
2. Together , the rebels attempted to enter the east bank of the Rawda Island and cross Yalbugha 's camp , but they were repelled by naphtha artillery and arrows .

Now, are these two sentences paraphrases of each other? Let's see...

The answer is... [II] yes! I think.

Why? Well, both sentences are saying the same thing, but in a little bit different way. In the first sentence, it says "attempted to cross the eastern bank of the Rawda Island and enter Yalbugha 's camp", while in the second sentence, it says "attempted to enter the east bank of the Rawda Island and cross Yalbugha 's camp". But the meaning is the same! Both sentences are talking about the rebels trying to get into Yalbugha's camp, but they were stopped by naphtha artillery and arrows.

So, that's why I think the answer is [II] yes! I hope that helps you understand! Do you have any other questions?<|im_end|>
