History

Historical Context

The Six-Day War from June 5-10, 1967, saw Israel defeat Egypt, Jordan, and Syria, resulting in significant territorial gains, including the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The conflict intensified Palestinian nationalism, leading to the establishment of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) in 1964. Ongoing violence in Gaza today reflects unresolved issues from this war, contributing to persistent humanitarian crises and international calls for intervention.
