What Was The Six-Day War?

The Six-Day War, also known as the 1967 War or the Third Arab-Israeli War, looms large in discussions about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Occurring due to lingering grievances from the wars of 1947-1949, the Suez Crisis, and Cold War tensions, the conflict saw Israel occupy the Golan Heights, the West Bank, and the Sinai Peninsula. Furthermore, the war contributed to economic instability in the 1970s while also paving the way for future conflicts.
