وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ
and from behind them
خَلْفِهِمْ — behind them. The location noun 'behind' carrying a 'them' at its end, so one word holds both the place and its owners. Coming after the preposition 'from', it sits in the 'of' (genitive) ending, and the attached pronoun fixes whose 'behind' is meant.
