    Though reenacted, it gives an excellent view of Egyptian infantry equipment in use during that operation.

    Got to know an Egyptian general in 1977 - he was flown to the U.K for major treatment on his bowels. Ended up in the hospital bed next to my dad’s stayed with us for a time as he recuperated- he’d fought in 5 wars. Genuinely a decent guy, lost contact with him after the assassination on Sadat.

      It’s a reenactment as stated in description. It seems strange to me that it was done so soon after the actual war though. You’d think tensions would still be too high and they might get hit by enemy that is still on edge about the last time. 9 months later was it? I forget the dates but I think actual attack was oct 1973 and reenactment in June or July 1974. I would have been wary that it was a second try in disguise if I were on the other side.

    • @jesjes-hr3di
      @jesjes-hr3di 4 дні тому

      ​@@user-or1rm1ol3q Did this video teach you nothing? While Israel initially suffered significant losses and was taken by surprise, it ultimately regained its footing and managed to repel the attacking forces. By the end of the conflict, Israel had advanced into Syrian territory in the Golan Heights and had crossed the Suez Canal into Egypt. In the broader context, both sides claimed victories: Egypt was able to regain some international respect and negotiate a disengagement agreement, while Israel demonstrated its military capability and strategic depth despite the initial setbacks. The war led to subsequent peace talks, including the Camp David Accords in 1978, which eventually resulted in a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt. Additionally, the aftermath of the Yom Kippur War set the stage for further conflicts, such as the Lebanon War in 1982, which arose from escalating tensions between Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and continued to influence the dynamics of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the years that followed. Over time, prolonged conflicts like these have profoundly shaped Israel, strengthening its military, fostering technological advancements, and reinforcing national unity, while also contributing to a complex socio-political landscape marked by ongoing security challenges. Russia’s involvement in the region, particularly its funneling of weapons to opposing sides, including Syria and various militant groups, has further complicated Israel's security environment and influenced its military strategies, compelling Israel to adapt and enhance its defense capabilities. So in my book; its still counted as yet another loss for Russia.

    The crossing was basically a super expensive failure. But it resulted in the Israelis realising that they can't keep the Sinai forever, that Egypt failed this time, but maybe next time would be more successful. So, they ordered Jewish settlers in the Sinai to pack their bags, withdrew their forces and came to a peace agreement with Egypt. Why do we always have to first have wars before we agree to peace?

    "Hatfield contextualised the display of military might by highlighting that Israel suffered fewer losses than Egyptian forces". This reporter is cluless. Of course Egypt had more casulties since it was attacking the most formidable defensive line since WW2. If he had any clue he should have compared Egyptian lossess to the allied losses in Normandy. The Egyptians did far better! That's not to mention his failure to speak about the US literally giving Israel every weapon it had. This report is nonesense.
