    40th anniversary of Yom Kippur War
    October 29, 1973 - Sinai Peninsula, Egypt/Israel: Prime Minister Golda Meir, Defense Minister Moshe Dayan and Israel Assembly member Yisrael Galili visit the Southern Command in the Sinai Peninsula.
    The Yom Kippur War, or the 1973 Arab¿Israeli War, was fought by the coalition of Arab states led by Egypt and Syria against Israel from October 6 to 25. The Arab armies launched a surprise attack on the Israeli-occupied territories on the holiest day in Judaism. Egyptian and Syrian forces crossed Six-Day War ceasefire lines to enter the Sinai and Golan Heights, captured by Israel in 1967. Egyptian forces crossed the Suez Canal, overcoming the notorious Bar Lev Defense line, and advanced unopposed into the Sinai. After three days, Israel mobilized most of its forces and halted the Egyptian offensive. Syrians attacked on the Golan Heights and made gains into Israeli-held territory; but within three days, Israeli forces pushed the Syrians back to the pre-war lines and launched a four-day counter-offensive deep into Syria. Egyptians launched a new offensive in the Sinai, but were quickly repulsed. The Israelis then counterattacked, crossed the Suez Canal into Egypt, and began slowly advancing southward and westward towards Cairo in over a week of heavy fighting which inflicted heavy casualties on both sides. By October 24, the Israelis had improved positions and completely encircled Egypt's Third Army and the city of Suez. A ceasefire was imposed by the United Nations on October 25 to end the war. Israeli forces were 40 kilometers from Damascus and 101 kilometers from Cairo. About 2,800 Israeli¿s were killed in action, 9,000 wounded. 293 Israelis were captured. About 400 Israeli tanks were destroyed, 600 were disabled but returned to service after repairs. The Israeli Air Force lost 102 airplanes and two helicopters. Arab casualties were much higher, though Egypt and Syria never disclosed official figures. Casualty estimates range from 5,000 to 15,000 Egyptians and abou

    NEWS - Israel: 50 Jahre nach dem Sechstagekrieg (Archivbilder)
    June 7, 1967 - East Jerusalem, Israel: SIX DAY WAR. DEFENSE MINISTER MOSHE DAYAN (C), CHIEF OF STAFF YITZHAK RABIN (R) AND JERUSALEM COMMANDER UZINARKIS ENTER THROUGH THE LION'S GATE INTO THE OLD CITY, on the third day of the war. The Six-Day War also known as the Third Arab–Israeli War, was fought between June 5 and 10, 1967 by Israel against Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. In the weeks before June 1967, tensions with Egypt became dangerously heightened. In reaction to the mobilization of Egyptian forces along the Israeli border in the Sinai Peninsula, Israel launched preemptive airstrikes against Egyptian airfields, catching the Egyptians by surprise, and destroying nearly the entire Egyptian air force, giving the Israelis air superiority. Simultaneously, the Israelis launched a ground offensive into the Gaza Strip and the Sinai, which caught the Egyptians by surprise. After some initial resistance, Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel Nasser ordered the evacuation of the Sinai. Israeli forces rushed westward in pursuit of the Egyptians, inflicted heavy losses, and conquered the Sinai. Nasser induced Syria and Jordan to begin attacks on Israel by using the initially confused situation to claim that Egypt had defeated the Israeli air strike. On June 11, a ceasefire was signed. Arab casualties were far heavier than those of Israel: fewer than a thousand Israelis had been killed compared to over 20,000 from the Arab forces. Israel seized control of the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, and following a counter attack, it seized the West Bank and East Jerusalem from Jordan, and the Golan Heights from Syria.
