| | | | Golan Heights: Encyclopedia II - Yom Kippur War - Background
Yom Kippur War - Causes.

| | | | Golan Heights: Encyclopedia II - Yom Kippur War - Long-term effects of the war The peace discussion at the end of the war was the first time that Arab and Israeli officials met for direct public discussions since the aftermath of the 1948 war.
For the Arabs (and Egyptians in particular), the psychological trauma of their defeat in the Six-Day War had been healed. In many ways, it allowed them to negotiate with the Israelis as equals.

Of particular concern to the Israelis were the 30 TU-16 Badger medium bombers, capable of inflicting heavy damage to Israeli military and civilian centers. [ ...
