The Six-Day War, fought from June 5 to 10, 1967, saw Israel engage Egypt, Jordan, and Syria, resulting in Israel's occupation of the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and Golan Heights. This territorial expansion intensified Israeli-Palestinian tensions, as approximately 280,000 Palestinians were displaced. Ongoing military actions by the IDF reflect the enduring security challenges rooted in this conflict, impacting regional stability and relations.
