Previously in our animated historical documentary series on modern warfare, we have covered the Six-Day War of 1967, also known as the Third Arab-Israeli War bit.ly/30NfTOy

    The key to the initial Egyptian success was the lightly mentioned water pumps used to cut paths thru the sand dune banks. The IDF "knew" that it took 48 hours to cut a path with bulldozers and counted on that time to mobilize. An Egyptian BG irrigating his garden with a hose thought that it might be faster if they used large pumps and fire hoses and he was right - it took only 8 hours. Thus the IDF lost 40 hours of planned mobilization time

This video helped me to understand the motivations, and also gives me some history on names I've always known, but didn't understand why they were famous.

      Couldn't agree more. When people say they think history is "boring" it's almost always that they had a boring (or simply insufficiently supported and equipped) teacher... I tell them "history is everything that every happened anywhere until the moment you read/hear what i'm saying" - but as you say if you just get a list of names, dates, and places, without any stories or context to add color, it not only makes that specific course boring, but often puts people off history permanently, when history is essential for understanding the present and future.

    For an Egyptian account check out that of Shazli, the chief of staff (gives a clear order of battle for the armed forces). For an Israeli account, read that of Bren Adan, armoured division commander whose unit fought at Chinese Farm and crossed to the West Bank of the canal.

    • @christophersmith5691
      @christophersmith5691 Před 3 lety +2

      For both sides the forces engaged were smaller than is at first apparent, reduced by cross deployments and attrition. For example the Israelis fought with only 5 small armoured divisions even after reserves were called up, though other units came south following the Golan defeat of the Arabs. The crossing of the canal was by a single reduced battalion of paratroopers. Vitally, the Israelis had always planned a canal crossing and trained accordingly, also they had acquired and prepared special bridging equipment, like the roller bridge towed by tanks. Their divisions were about the size of a NATO style brigade, their tank brigades the size roughly of a British army tank regiment after the reduction process of cross attachments and losses. On both sides there was a tendency to disperse forces into smaller 'packets' though high mobility on the Israeli side masked this

      Egypt won .. there's no barlive line .. Sinai is Egyptian land ..
      The Egyptian army forces in the Sinai were 100 km from Tel Aviv and 90 km from Jerusalem. This is the result of Egypt's victory in the Yom Kippur War, which forced Israel to return Sinai to Egypt, insisting on the Israeli lie that their army won the Yom Kippur War and that it was 100 km from Cairo in the Yom Kippur War. Of course, they take advantage of people's lack of knowledge of distances. Because the distance from the Suez Canal to the outskirts of Cairo is about 100 kilometers, originally.

    Funny to see how we debate on who won this war. Each side accuses the other side’s ego for preventing them from seeing the "truth", which is "of course" that our side won and the other side lost.
    But the truth is war is dreadful. As much as videos like this are fun to watch, the war itself is far from fun to participate. People died. Families were broken. Survivors are still walking among us bearing traumas. Mothers in both Cairo and Jerusalem were devastated losing their dearest regardless of how "victorious" their side came out of this war.

    The Egyptian offensive on the 14th was launched despite the vehement objections of the Egyptian Chief of Staff, General Saed Al-Shazli. As he had forseen, Egyptian armor, now outside of the defensive AA net, was outmaneuvered by the IDF in the open desert and destroyed. Moreover, despite Al-Shazly's objections, the units utilized in the offensive were pulled from the armor reserves of the 2 armies, and attacked along 3 diffrent routes at the same time instead of concentrating their efforts.
    As an Israeli - General Al-Shazly was very well respected by the Israelis as a military mind, one of the few competent Egyptian commanders, even through the fiasco of the Six Day War. One of several military appointees by Saadat to the upper echelon of Egyptian command, designed to replace the overly potisized and largely incompetent officer corp brough there by Nasser and Amer. The canal crossing plan, with it's multiple factors, complicated time table and strategic intelligence deceptions - in particular, regarding the water cannons, that the Israelis utterly failed to comprehend the importance of - is credited to him.

    A decisive part of why Israel's counter attack was successful that wasn't mentioned here was the fact that the Egyptians had no intention or preparation to continue marching through Sinai, they were only prepared to take over the 12 km east of the canal where they had air defense cover. and then to use diplomacy to sort the rest out, but they were pressured by the soviet union, who basically funded the whole thing, and by Syria, who played a major role distracting the IDF in the north, to continue marching and it almost cost them everything, they were stretched too thin against a far more superior army that had direct support from USA and they were exposed to air strikes. Israel also ignored the ceasefire later when they crossed the canal and encircled the 3rd div.
    The fact this ended the way it ended is a blessing and a miracle for Egypt.

    In that case Egypt lost, because Israel crossed the Canal and were 1,600km^2 away from Cairo. Should the UN did not ring the bell, Egypt would have been pushed entirely out of Sinai and even lose more territory.

Do you know that the Egyptian army right now is almost 100 km away from Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, as it stands at Rafah?
      After the counter-attack, as the IDF managed to cross the Suez canal to occupy its western bank, it received double defeats in Suez city and Ismailia and failed to occupy them and was forced to be stationed on the south-western side of the Suez canal, which is ''100 km away from Cairo''.
      On the other hand, the Egyptian army managed to occupy the whole eastern side of the Suez canal after the crossing and the destruction of the Bar-Lev line, which remained occupied by the Egyptian army until the end of the war, with exception of the Deversoir air base.

    I actually thought that the Egyptians managed to go much deeply into Sinai. It's clear now that they just crossed the channel and advanced a bit. They never came anywhere near an Israeli city.

      That wasn't the goal to begin with, the goal was to cross the Canal successfully, destroy the Bar Lev Line which was claimed to be "indestructible" at the time by Israeli and British Intelligence create a 10-15 km buffer zone in the Eastern side of the Canal, create a defensive umbrella against any air threats by deploying multiple Anti Air, force the Israelis in the offensive and hold that small buffer zone in the Eastern side of the Canal which all happened and successfully. The goal was to force the Israeli into negotiations, that was the plan all along, the war was just the first time to force the Israelis into the negotiation table and this was all mentioned in Sadat's journal. Militarily Egypt was winning during the first few days, and with Israel gaining the upper hand in the last few days, so it was more or less a draw militarily, but politically? It was definitely an Egyptian victory, cause we negotiated Israel to give back Sinai in return we recognise them. The goal was to regain Sinai through negotiations, and that's exactly what happened, so Egypt achieved their war goals, so we can say that the Egyptians won the war. Won the war of course Politically, cause Militarily it was more or less a draw than anything.

      Chronologically speaking, that hasn't happened yet. I, similarly to you, hope they cover the Yugoslav Wars. But they probably haven't because that takes place in the 90's while KnG are still in the 70s.
