SIX-DAY WAR
The Six-Day War was fought between Israel and a coalition of Arab states (primarily Egypt, Syria, and Jordan) from 5 to 10 June 1967.
In the months prior to the outbreak of war, tensions were heightened. In May 1967, Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser closed the Straits of Tiran to Israeli vessels, which Israel stated was a provocation for war. Nasser then mobilized the Egyptian military into defensive lines along the border with Israel and ordered the immediate withdrawal of UN personnel from the Sinai.
On 5 June 1967, Israel airstrikes against Egypt, precipitating war. Israeli forces then launched a ground offensive into Egypt's Sinai Peninsula and Egyptian-occupied Gaza Strip. By day six of the war, Israel had occupied the Sinai and Gaza. Jordan, which had entered into a defense pact with Egypt just a week before the war began, did not take on an all-out offensive role against Israel. However, the Jordanians did launch attacks against Israeli forces to slow Israel's advance. On the fifth day, Syria joined the war by shelling Israeli positions in the north.
Egypt and Jordan agreed to a ceasefire on 8 June, and Syria on 9 June, and it was signed with Israel on 11 June. In the aftermath, Israel gained control of Syria's Golan Heights, the Jordanian-annexed West Bank (including East Jerusalem), and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula and Egypt-occupied Gaza Strip.
SIX-DAY WAR - TIMELINE
1948 - As a result of the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, Israel is established as a Jewish state, controlling 75% of Palestine, 30% more than was allocated to it in the 1947 UN Partition Plan; no Palestinian Arab state is formed; in the following years, a permanent state of war exists between Israel and the adjacent Arab countries, Palestinian militants launch cross-border raids into Israel from bases in Egypt, Syria, Jordan, and Lebanon, while Israel conducts retaliatory attacks and accuse Arab countries of supporting the Palestinian infiltrations
Mid-1960s - Tensions rise significantly because of the following incidents:
1965-1966 - Following a dispute over water sharing of the Jordan River, Israeli forces destroy Syrian construction projects that would have diverted water away from Israel

May 13, 1967 - The Soviet Union informs Egypt that Israeli forces are massing on the Syrian border; although Egyptian authorities determine that the Soviet information is untrue, Egypt, complying with its mutual defense pact with Syria, places its forces on full alert and deploys troops on the border with Israel
