January 220 BC: Antiochos found himself in a difficult situation, having to deal with this uprising while trying in vain to reconquer Coele-Syria from Ptolemy III. The king ends up deciding to go to the East himself on the advice of Epigenes. The campaign is conducted relatively effectively as Molon is defeated and commits suicide.
