The Yom Kippur War – 1973 Middle East Conflict

On October 6, 1973, as Jews across Israel observed Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year, sirens wailed across the country. Egyptian and Syrian forces launched a massive surprise attack, storming across the Suez Canal and the Golan Heights. The war that followed was short but devastating—fought in deserts, cities, and skies, with modern tanks and jet fighters clashing in some of the most intense battles since World War II. The Yom Kippur War reshaped the Middle East. It brought Israel to the brink, forced the superpowers of the Cold War into direct confrontation, and set the stage for decades of peace talks and ongoing conflict. This is the story of the war that shook the region in 1973. 📺 Explore Our Other Channels: 🔦 The Lantern’s Tale →    / @thelanternstale   ⚓ The Sunken Ledger →    / @thesunkenledger   🐎 Deserted Trails →    / @desertedtrails   ☢️ Road to Ruins →    / @roadtoruins   #history #lastposthistory #yomkippurwar #middleeast #coldwar #truehistory #warstorytelling
