Operation Sinai

Operation Sinai was a military campaign led by Israel in 1973 during the Yom Kippur War. Its goal was to push Egyptian forces back from the Sinai Peninsula after Egypt launched a surprise attack on Israel’s Yom Kippur holiday. The operation involved Israel launching a series of battles to regain lost territory and weaken Egyptian defenses. It ultimately contributed to Israel’s strategic position and led to negotiations that resulted in the Camp David Accords. The operation was a significant part of the broader conflict between Israel and its neighbors over territory and security.
