وَوَقَعَتْ أَلْوِيِتُهُ وَأَعْلَامُهُ مِنْ أَيْدِيهِمْ فَلَيْسُوا يَرْفَعُونَهَا،

And his banners and standards fell from their hands, so they do not raise them.

وَوَقَعَتْ and fell

The wa- prefix is the running 'and' that chains this clause onto the previous one; it does not change the verb. The verb itself is past tense and carries a feminine -at ending because its subject, the banners that come next, is treated as a feminine plural in Arabic. So the verb is quietly agreeing with a subject that has not been spoken yet.
