Operation Badr 1973: Egypt's Opening Air Strike Remembered

Original: Operation Badr 1973: Egypt's Opening Air Strike

Attention is turning to Operation Badr, the surprise Egyptian air strike that opened the 1973 Arab-Israeli War on October 6, when Egyptian forces crossed the Suez Canal and struck Israeli positions in the Sinai. The operation is being revisited as one of the most coordinated opening moves in modern military history, with discussion of how Egyptian aircraft exploited the timing of the attack to achieve early surprise.

Why now: Anniversaries and renewed interest in the Yom Kippur War are prompting a fresh look at Egypt's opening air strike.
