You have mistaken the Egyptian and Syrian flag
Its amazing how a incredible documentary like this one can bê seen "for free" nowadays. Better than any television ir big midia work, you guys are doing an incredible job. Makes you really want tô support in anyway
@Andrew Olson really?
@Andrew Olson seriously? Prageru is like the most honest right wing channel, its so well produced, and really is very cleanly made.
I guess BBC's 20th Century wars is free and its better but limited to only 6 wars.
Kahalani had nothing to do with infantry - he was a tankist. In the Yom Kippur War he commanded the 77th tank battalion - though his unit was far from complete. That said, his unit destroyed over 300 Syrian tanks.
...moreover, the battle in Sinai was never progressing better than that against Syria - both fronts were on the brink and in dire straights.
Min. 19.50 ish - NO TANKS were transferred from Sinai to the Golan. The opposite is true. Israel finished off Syria after many casualties and bitter fighting and then transferred tanks to Sinai.
Whomever wrote this documentary did not have the basic facts.
This documentary needs some work.
Yeah also kings qnd generals cover the gallic wars and its glorious...
Wow, your narrator is just as brilliant describing modern battles in an intense way, as he is with classic and medieval events. It's as if I saw what was happening!

God I absolutely love these modern warfare wars and battles, the 3D effects are absolutely awesome
I'd prefer the style they use on their classical videos, this 3D style isn't all that precise to be honest.
As a HOI4 veteran under ginger general TommyKay, I enjoy these videos thoroughly.
Are you kidding? This 3D figures are f'ing ridiculous.
Politics aside, goddamn the IDF was an impressive fighting force. They were certainly helped by incompetence on the other side, but very impressive nonetheless.
Now even Arab league understand that they can't win conventional warfare... Israel have outsmarted their neighbors..
I visited the Israeli tank museum once in Latrun. An older guy was a volunteer and answering questions that day. In all seriousness, I asked him why the Israelis did so well in their wars and his reply was a pretty matter of fact, "The only reason we did so well in those wars was that we were fighting Arabs. If we had fought anyone else, we'd have lost." I was a bit taken aback at this statement but as I looked into it more, I realized that while his racist statement is pretty common in Israel, he wasn't wrong. In the end, the Arab caste system that separates officers from enlisted by a huge margin was really the key to all of it.
What I learned in my three visits to Israel was that the Arabs were led by brutal regimes that treated their soldiers poorly, paid them poorly, gave them little to no benefits, and used conscription. Under those conditions, led by selfish and entitled officers who had very little respect for them, made for very low morale when the casualties mounted. The officers, who actually had a lot to lose as they were mostly politically appointed, didn't have the stomach or motivation either once the dying started on the battlefield. So they abandoned their troops or led so far from the safety of the rear that the poorly motivated conscripts had very little communication amongst each other and to them, it looked bad, so they ran. The professional NCO's and a few outstanding officers in the Arab armies are all that really saved them from total collapse.
Contrast that with the IDF and they were mostly volunteers, all fighting for their very lives and homeland. Backed up by a professional officer corps and first-rate equipment and training. They knew exactly what they were fighting and dying for and losing wasn't an option. They say an enemy is most dangerous when it's cornered and the Arab armies cornered the IDF hard but had no plan to overcome that with anything but numbers.
@@soldat2501 The IDF has always been a conscript army as well. It's just that they've always had a sense of fighting a defensive war, which tends to keep everyone well motivated. Explains why the incursions into Lebanon weren't as impressive.
@@talknight2 Very good point.
@@soldat2501 haha Israel (IAF) has taken down 5MiGs drove by Russians in 3minutes during war of attrition 1970.

It's also one of the primary reason Putin is bit hesitated to take on Israel-we know who supplies Arabs n where Russia's true allegiance is..

the only reason jorden didn't join the war was because it had problems inside the country, the PLO tried to do a coup against the king in 1970, israel helped to win them, and jorden kicked them out to Lebanon.

@@bakr6405 glade you agree, my condolences
They did technically win in a more tactical and politcal way
We destroyed the israeli military and forced them to run to the USA for reinforcements and support
We liberated small parts of sinai and golan heights
The Israeli military command admitted that they were humiliated and should have been able to destroy both countries
The war is considered a turning point in the Arab-Israeli conflict. It demonstrated that Arab states could challenge and inflict significant losses on Israel, which had enjoyed a series of military victories in previous conflicts. This shift in the balance of power was seen as a victory in terms of altering the perception of Israeli invincibility.
The Yom Kippur War led to diplomatic and political gains for the Arab states. The conflict prompted international attention and involvement, leading to initiatives for negotiations and peace talks. This included the United Nations Security Council Resolution 338, which called for a ceasefire and negotiations to achieve a just and lasting peace in the region.
The Israeli military faced heavy casualties and had to mobilize reserve forces to reinforce their positions. In the first few days of the war, Israel struggled to effectively respond to the Arab offensive. The situation was particularly critical on the southern front, where Egyptian forces crossed the Suez Canal and established a bridgehead in the Sinai Peninsula.

As one with a much battered unit Golani 51 which captured the Hermon Mt., it was over in short order. You either died quickly or wondered why not!

Well said 🔥
And they told us how the iraqi army amazingly stoped the israeli army before reaching damascas
I think i have to study history again
Yeah. Me too
They did not stop them but they managed during the last phase of the war to bring more than 15,000 men to damascus and its vicinity between troops, armored units,... and the iraqi government at the time pressured to soviets to stop the israelis, no need to mention that the syrian command at the time refused to push with the arab forces on its territory, something that many baa'th members ( the ruling party in syria and iraq at the time) would later on reveal, as some syrian officials feared the growing strength of the arab forces on its territory and the rivalry it had with some other regimes, mainly jordan in the south ( after the war of 1970) so it refused to commit forces to their offensive.
Most of the history they teached us in Iraqi schools is nothing but big exaggerated lies from Islamic history to modern warfare.
Most of the history, perception and knowledge arabs have on israel/israelis and the conflict is highly incorrect to say the least, arab states are the best in mind controlling and brainwashing their own people, into believing in their own construct fairytales

Same PFP lol
Britain and France were giving Israel whatever weapons they wanted but refused to sell Egypt anything. Then they got upset when Egypt turned to the Soviets. While all the while Britain and France were making money out of of Suez Canal which the Brits and the French conned the Egyptians out of under the leadership of PM Benjamin Disraeli.
For me, Israelis should be commended for retaking Mount Hermon cuz it is very difficult to dislodged a well trenched enemy force on an elevated position.
yep, that's considered as the hardest battle on Israel's history
Syria still actually controls the tallest part of the mountain, and they also control the rest of the mountain-range north of it. it might be the tallest mountain in Israel, but Syria still has a height advantage in that region
Same can be said about syrian liberating it in the beginning of the war.
@@malekali5309 cope. seethe. dilate.
@@malekali5309 true, but the focus is on those who captured it and held on to it. Not those who captured it for just a few months.
A few interesting bits not really mentioned in this video:
*The Syrian commandos taking over the mount Hermon outpost was actually devastating for Israel. That outpost is mainly used by the Israeli intelligence which is bad enough, but one military intel soldier who was captured knew A LOT about all sorts of Israeli operations & he broke before the Syrians even had a chance to begin torturing him - spilling EVERYTHING he knew. The other Israeli POWs - all of which were being regularly tortured, actually tried to have him killed to shut him up, until the Syrians separated him. Israel spent years scrapping operations & changing methods because of it.
*Zvika Force - Zvika, a young Israeli officer in the 188th armored brigade spent 20 hours holding the line mostly with just his tank, during the initial Syrian push, while Israel was fighting a delaying battle until the reserves arrive. When his tank was knocked out, he switched to another tank & continued fighting. He called himself on the radio Zvika Force, in order to make the Syrians think they're facing a larger force. His tanks took out dozens of Syrian tanks during the battle. After the war he won the Heroism award - the highest military award in Israel.
*The naval arena - while in the 1967 war the Israeli ground forces & air force performed brilliantly, the navy kinda blundered and as a result they made some serious changes between the wars. in 1973 the first 2 struggled, but the Israeli navy completely dominated the seas. This war actually saw both sides using surface to surface missiles & culminated in the battle of Latakia, which saw the Israeli navy attacking the Syrian port town, sinking naval ships & installations & forcing the Syrian navy to remain bottled up until the end of the war.
*Outcome - part of the reason the Arabs celebrate the 1973 war, is that it was considered a disaster in Israel, which is not reflected in the videos. There was an intelligence failure in predicting the war & gauging the capabilities of the new Soviet made weapons used by the Arabs, which changed the battlefield, forcing the Israeli army to adapt mid war & change it's tactics. As well as the Israeli reservists being badly equipped. The casualties, close to 3000 KIA were disastrous in Israeli terms. There was a lot of public anger following the war & a committee was formed to study the failures during the 1973 war & how to correct them going forward. Mind you that the Arab outcome was far worse, though...
As a side note, Israel & Syria are in a state of cease fire, not peace, as mentioned in the video. However, following the war Israel & Egypt did sign a peace treaty, with Egypt becoming the first Arab state to make peace & recognize Israel. Which is interesting, considering they were Israel's most powerful enemy & the driving force behind the previous 2 wars.
@@TheLocalLt
Everything you said is correct except the state of Syria, I assure you we were NOT more technologically advanced than the rest, in fact we were one of the least advanced Arab ones, and our equipment (as relayed to me by several soldiers) is old Soviet crap, it's why when Russia entered its planes, the scales were tipped in our favor, before that Syrian airforce was outdated and in bad shape
And I'd like to know how we were culturally advanced, do you mean progressive? We were on equal grounds in progressiveness with Egypt, Iraq, less than Lebanon, equal to Tunisia, Libya, Morocco and Algeria...and even that doesn't imply advancement as some would consider progressiveness as weakening and demoralizing, in contrast to strict religious doctrine which would work greater in war
As for OP, yes we treat it as victory (I don't) but not only because of what you mentioned (which is at best helpful propaganda for us) but because we considered Israel's giving up of territory as her being defeated, yes we are that desperate for a victory.
Also it could be said That Assad blew his "victory" out of proportion to drum up his popularity among the people
@@TheLocalLt
Well in that case Egypt too enjoyed local stability since 1973 until 2011, you might consider Sadat's assassination as destabalizing (which I wouldn't, Mubarak took controm straight afterwards) but Syria too went through a mini-civil war in 1982 against the Muslim Brotherhood, which climaxed in Hama's (not Hamas, I mean the city of Hama) brutal siege in which at least 30000 people died
In most aspects I'd say we were on equal grounds with Egypt, we were probably more militarized than them, though during Assad Jr that militarization was reduced as Bashar leans more towards civilian life whereas his father was a military man
@@zamalin2
That's cause most Syrians can barely speak English....even though it's taught as a second language in school
@@totalwartimelapses6359 what a fresh voice to come from the arab world. Indeed our political leaders always told us that now that we gave up territory they will want peace. yours told you you've won the war. Each gave his people their own brand of something to hope for, I guess. Unfortunately even the peace agreement with egypt was based on a fatwah given by the religious leader of Egypt ( sorry can't recall the name) that said peace with Israel is possible - based on the case of HudDaybia. Basically meaning a mock peace, to be broken at an opprotune moment when the enemy is weak.

Then with the spread of the Internet and communication sites, the Israelis woke up from a deep slumber. Then they remembered and said we won. This is ridiculous.

*Iraq has left the chat.*
Actually, I was watching a couple of documentaries about the Iraqi army in 1973 war. It lasted from the 10th of October to the 22nd of October and they won many battles and they were able to deter the attack on Damascus. Many Iraqi officers said when the Israelis first saw them they ran away and even left their tanks. I can give you the link to the videos but it is Arabic. Besides, the Israelis are most likely have lied about their losses. The iraqi Airforce also participated in the Sinai front and Iraqi pilots were one of the first to launch the attack on the Israeli HQs and SAM sites. It's very known that if the Iraqis didn't join the war, Damascus would have been lost to the Israelis.

Amazing detail of the battles fought. Best I have ever seen. Thankyou.
I spent a few weeks on the Golan heights in the 90's. I was interested to find WW2 German tanks and also Stugs that had been used by the Syrians in the Valley of Tears. A collectors dream, except that they've been wrecked by shells from Centurions. The sight of Israeli Merkava tanks parked up on the hillsides of the Purple Line is very impressive. They won't be caught napping ever again. The Golan is a prosperous farming region now, as it was before the Romans expelled all the Jews. The original olive trees of the ruined Jewish town of Gamla are still growing strong almost 2,000 years later. It's well worth a visit but if you see a sign saying " Danger: Mines " , believe it.

@Orgo 2003 1 modern tank outguns 20 old tanks easily, is this the first video on a modern war you have ever watched?
an interesting detail about the war that was revealed only a few years ago (release of 1973 recordings) -
the israeli cabinet (including former commanders responsible for successes in 1967) was extremely pessimistic and wanted to reach armistice asap, while the idf high command was reluctant and dismissive and continued the counter attacks
Well, the '73 war caught the Israelis pretty much off guard. The Syrians and Egyptians had done their prep work well and for the most part, their initial attacks we also well planned and executed. The Israeli reserve plan called for 24-48 hours to fully muster but much of it was accomplished in less than 12.
When the plan starting to go a little different, the arabs couldn't figure out how to take back the initiative. In the Valley of Tears (I've never, ever heard it called the Vale before) there was once six Israeli tanks facing off against 150 Syrians. And when 30+ of the Syrian tanks were destroyed, they gave up even though only 2 Israeli tanks were left. Your enemy will always make mistakes so your plans have to be versatile enough to take advantage of them. Trying to follow some stupid time chart to the letter has never, ever worked out in war.

The music creates the feeling suitable with the events. The channel is well diverse covering events in every era..I love it as it is also free to watch. Im going to recommend to my friends so keep it up and THANK YOU!
This video is wrong. Egypt has achieved a resounding victory, and the proof of this is that you did not take a single grain of sand from our country
Britain and France were giving Israel whatever weapons they wanted but refused to sell Egypt anything. Then they got upset when Egypt turned to the Soviets. While all the while Britain and France were making money out of of Suez Canal which the Brits and the French conned the Egyptians out of under the leadership of PM Benjamin Disraeli.
Syrians be like: what a decisive victory!
At the end Syria still got some lands from the golan heights which Israel still claims to this day
@@belkYT they didn't get anything out of this war. They lost many men and didn't achieve any of their goals-and most importantly;doing this today would be unthinkable for Syria.
Israelis lived for generations knowing that the October 1973 war was a defeat for Israel, a fact that all Israelis know, while Egyptians have been celebrating every year since then.
The famous victory speech given by Sadat in the Egyptian Parliament on October 6, Egyptians celebrate the National Day of the Great October Victory. Then with the spread of the Internet and communication sites, the Israelis woke up from a deep slumber. Then they remembered and said we won. This is ridiculous.

Who would win, almost the entire might of the Arab world or some Israeli bois?
Israel
Israelis can’t beat hizbullah. The only thing Israel has is an Air Force. and the United States bank rolling them with money and all the weapons they want. Just imagine if they the Arabs and Israel just fought with sticks and stones. They wouldn’t exist as a people let alone a country

It's good that I watched this episode, because after watching the episode of the "Biggest Tank Battles" series about the battles on the Golan Heights, it seemed to me that I knew everything about this front, and here it was a surprise. In general, I did not know that in the final stage of this war, the hostilities moved as far as the Syrian capital, Damascus.
THIS IS THE STORY OF THE ARAB-ISRAEL CONFLICT
3 big bullies tried to take on a smaller, much younger, newly arrived kid, who had been through a terrible ordeal, but the kid decided to fight back and they ran. After some time these three bullies tried to take him down again but this time the kid struck first and they were severely beaten leaving their things for the kid to take. For the third time, they struck at the kid while was praying, but although they managed to beat him at first the kid fought back and defeated them again even chasing the biggest bully to his house. As time passes they dare not attack him again, but throw stones at him hiding behind the skirts of women and children and complaining every time he struck back.
It is all due to the evil cult arabs are following.
More like a big bully settled in 3 kids backyard and started beating them up and taking their yard
@@Gimmegames4free6942 More like 3 devils disguised as kids to gain sympathy.
@@Gimmegames4free6942 Who attacked first?
@@ErasDLC irrelevant when the Arabs are trying to take back their own land. I don't even care much for the Arabs but your Zionist views are just stupid
THat was great--VERY involved stuff there. I remember this being on the news as a kid, I didn't realize just how big a fight this was. Nice job.
I was in this war as proud soldier of IDF
Isaia 11:11
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros(egytian border), and from Cush(ancient Ethiopia), and from Elam(Iran), and from Shinar,(babylon)and from Hamath(syrian border), and from the islands of the sea.

Y'all saying that Israel was supplied by Usa.
What bout Syria, Egypt etc? Weren't they supported by Ussr? Both parts had a support so stfu. FREE ISRAEL
Israel wasn't supplied in time by the US. It helped but that`s not what won us the war.
Shut your mouth dude.All given by US,as if his country give things out without asking back.Msh
@@olaiyatunde3023 we are supported today by the U.S but back in 1973 almost not at all.
Mostly the French helped us until a few years after this war and then in the 80's the U.S started their good relations with us and with it came financial aid miss on the form of technological investment
USA is busy on Vietnam on that times
@@yoadhordan2809 the french stopped selling weapons to israel in 1967, the united states was supplying weapons to israel by 1973
Thank you for your services really appreciate ur videos.
Great video as always, but the only suggestion I have is that maybe you should also include a calendar or the dates of the vents in one of the corners. You talk about how one clash happened days after the other, but we have no overall timeline to follow.
I’m starting to see a repeating pattern throughout history of the Jewish people being outnumbered, both in the modern and ancient world.
Edit: Thanks for all the likes folks! Also, while I support Israel’s right to exist, I also support Palestine’s right to exist in peace as well as a peace where Palestinians can live their lives in peace with way less hardship then they currently experience.
Always outnumbered, never outgunned
Always a minority working against the majority from the inside

They were trying to take Sinai, which israel had already taken in a war prior to this war, from Egypt.

Israel lost in yom Kippur and Lebanon and many other wars with the Arabs. Plus israel would literally be nothing without the west.
@@Mohab7274 did you watch the video? How's that a win for egypt, when israel literally got inside egypt, and egypt lost more soldiers, planes and tanks. Also israel invaded lebanon in 1982 and defeated the PLO, and in 2006 i guess i could call it an israely military failure, but at the end of the war hezbollah was left with many more casualties.
@@Mohab7274 also you should watch the 6 day war video, you can see how israel annihilates 5 arab countries that had the support of the soviet union in 6 days. And israel wasn't helped by the U.S, israel was helped by them in the yom kippur war.
@@Mohab7274 just like the Arabs would be nothing without soviet help during these battles in the videos just watched
Excellent work there! Most of the war documentaries lack this 3D angle and other geographical details otherwise not clear on a map. Really great work! I'll suggest to cover 1971 Indo-Pakistan war. Cheers!
Friend and colleague was a member of the Barak Brigade in 1973. He was shot up badly when his unit was ordered not to retreat in the southern Golan. I got a hands on tour of the battlefield. When I was there 25 years ago, there were numerous wrecked vehicles present and various strong points remained visible. Hell of a battle.
Finally, waited for this so long!
Post colonialism to insure western dominance, puppet dictators put in power in Arab lands, Israhell was created n armed by the west, result is arabs having no legitimate capable non traitors for leaders n the west arming a country they created called Israhell!like two football teams playing,Arab vs Israeli except arab team has a manager put there by the other team who has no capability or loyalty n the Arab team not having facilities equipment funding of the Israeli team.This is not a victory for Israhell it's a rigged game.

Could you please make a continuation as the Lebanese Civil war ?
As they said at 19:23 wars in the region will continue and then Lebanon was positioned at the center of the map. After 1973, Lebanon became the only playground and unfortunately remains so. The next logical episode of this series would be talking about the Lebanese Civil War I think. Waiting for it impatiently but it is still a very tough subject since there is no consensus around the rationale behind many of its events.
Thats a small oof for Israel tbh
Imagine fighting for your entire country for your entire life only to end up being the second biggest military in your country
