It’s a reenactment as stated in description. It seems strange to me that it was done so soon after the actual war though. You’d think tensions would still be too high and they might get hit by enemy that is still on edge about the last time. 9 months later was it? I forget the dates but I think actual attack was oct 1973 and reenactment in June or July 1974. I would have been wary that it was a second try in disguise if I were on the other side.

Egypt made Israel twist to the point of having real opportunities to liberate Palestine but at the last minute it prefers to negotiate with Israel and sign a peace treaty leaving its allies alone
Liberating “Palestine “ was never the point in 1973 it was payback for the 1967 beat down. And yet Israel still prevailed. The Egyptians don’t give a flip about the so-called Palestinian people. If they did they wouldn’t have one of the most secure borders keeping the “Palestinians “ in Gaza. Long live Israel 🇮🇱

وصف الجنرال شموائيل جونين, قائد جيش إسرائيل فى جبهة سيناء, هذه الحرب بأنها صعبة, ومعارك المدرعات بها كانت قاسية ومعارك الجو فيها مريرة. موضحا أن الجندى المصري كان يتقدم في موجات تلو موجات رغم إطلاق القوات الإسرائيلية النار عليه, إلا أنه يواصل تقدمه ويحيل ما حوله إلى جحيم ويظل يتقدم.
its quite something that in most historical crisis russia always supported and supports the loosing side, over hundreds of years russia has been making bad decisions, quite amazing.
@@user-or1rm1ol3q Did this video teach you nothing? While Israel initially suffered significant losses and was taken by surprise, it ultimately regained its footing and managed to repel the attacking forces. By the end of the conflict, Israel had advanced into Syrian territory in the Golan Heights and had crossed the Suez Canal into Egypt. In the broader context, both sides claimed victories: Egypt was able to regain some international respect and negotiate a disengagement agreement, while Israel demonstrated its military capability and strategic depth despite the initial setbacks. The war led to subsequent peace talks, including the Camp David Accords in 1978, which eventually resulted in a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt. Additionally, the aftermath of the Yom Kippur War set the stage for further conflicts, such as the Lebanon War in 1982, which arose from escalating tensions between Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and continued to influence the dynamics of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the years that followed. Over time, prolonged conflicts like these have profoundly shaped Israel, strengthening its military, fostering technological advancements, and reinforcing national unity, while also contributing to a complex socio-political landscape marked by ongoing security challenges. Russia’s involvement in the region, particularly its funneling of weapons to opposing sides, including Syria and various militant groups, has further complicated Israel's security environment and influenced its military strategies, compelling Israel to adapt and enhance its defense capabilities. So in my book; its still counted as yet another loss for Russia.
Even Egyptian army have very few actual footage of the war because no journalist was allowed until ceasefire was confirmed Most footage especially videos are after the war in 1974 exercise by Egyptian army to show how they crossed the canal
the first journalists were allowed on the 8th of October . but as you say- there was zero journalists on the 6th. the memoires of the EGypt chief of staff- AlShazly confirmed there was zero journalists on that day.
While Israeli pulled off a monumental victory against many nations it has to be said that the river crossing by the Egyptians was a excellent display of military operations

The Egyptian offensive was indeed a surprise..they quickly gained the momentum and was able to gain more than half of the Sinai but there..somehow the momentum shifted on the advantage of the Israelis but what really amazes me is how the Israelis decided to trap the entire Egyptian army..i watch most of the Israeli war documentaries and i find them to be brilliant in war tactics and strategies..i think that this war did not end the way the Egyptians planned it to be but they got what they wanted for a very valuable price for an Israeli..Egypt got back the Sinai in exchange for peace..
@maxyboy0714 the objective of the war was to control 20 kilometers strip after the canal which pressure the Israelis to negotiate on the land as I see the objective was successful achieved,oh yeah stop hiding behind usa in every war
If you ask Google in Arabic, it will say (Egypt won), and if you ask it in English, it may deceive you and say (Israel). If you want to know the truth, look at the world map now: Egypt regained the Sinai Peninsula and the Suez Canal. Or read the memoirs of Israeli criminal leaders as they weep bitterly over their defeat.
The egyptians and their allies came with the most modern and powerful weapons in the world at that time against Israel, but Israel went against them with Almighty God and proved, definitively, that God's promise to the children of Israel is real: Israel will never be destroyed!
You know that God promised the Muslims that the Children of Israel would defeat them at their hands and we would enter Jerusalem as conquerors and welcome, as the Qur’an revealed.
1- without American air bridge Israel couldn't do anything. 2- Syria and Egypt had old Mig 21 as main fighter jet while Israel had advanced multiroles F-4 phantom and Mirage . 3- Syria and Egypt had soviet T-55 with less range than Israeli tanks . 4- all the advanced Arabs weapons were only defensive like SAM missiles. Above all these , it's brave enough to attack an enemy with nuclear technology while you have such a Soviet trash. It wasn't the Arabic soldier who lost the battle, but the Arabic policy.
To quote Brezhnev. We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have.

❤❤❤❤EGYPT ❤❤ Egypt and the Egyptians, they are the first civilization in the world and until now Egypt's civilization amazes everyone and has many secrets, the Egyptians are also a people who can be relied upon in everything, yes the truth is that the hand of old and modern colonialism is always trying to obstruct their path because they will light up the world with all good and without compensation, old and modern colonialism does not want that, it only wants to enslave all people in the world, so Egypt and the Egyptians fought, maybe there is peace but colonialism is still squatting on the ruling systems in Egypt by using its agents so that they do not make the Egyptians advance technologically or economically, they always want Egypt in a state of poverty so that it does not have the ability to innovate and develop civilization for the world for free as happened in modern history from the period from 1954 to 1974, after the war they hired mercenaries to trap Egypt and put them in all fields and ministries and all the administrative apparatus in the state until they made it fall (the same game they set to trap the Soviet Union and its collapse) then they opened the markets inside it and prevented local industry Which was one of the best industries in the pain, then after 10 years they started selling all the companies and factories and their lands to enemies from outside Egypt, so Egypt fell into economic problems from that day until now and is suffering, a great revolution will take place in Egypt that will expel all these traitors and return Egypt to the great Nasserite era, which is Egyptian National Socialism, which proved its success in the era of leader Gamal Abdel Nasser from 1954 to 1970, and apart from that, the Egyptians are truly God's chosen people
Recuperaron el sinaí , y por cuestiones políticas modificaron su estrategia para ayudar a su inútil aliado , Siria . Si no lanzaban esa ofensiva dentro del sinaí y mantenía su línea defensiva cerca del Nilo , sería muy difícil para Israel intentar atravesar esa línea defensiva .

The crossing was basically a super expensive failure. But it resulted in the Israelis realising that they can't keep the Sinai forever, that Egypt failed this time, but maybe next time would be more successful. So, they ordered Jewish settlers in the Sinai to pack their bags, withdrew their forces and came to a peace agreement with Egypt. Why do we always have to first have wars before we agree to peace?

وصف الجنرال شموائيل جونين, قائد جيش إسرائيل فى جبهة سيناء, هذه الحرب بأنها صعبة, ومعارك المدرعات بها كانت قاسية ومعارك الجو فيها مريرة. موضحا أن الجندى المصري كان يتقدم في موجات تلو موجات رغم إطلاق القوات الإسرائيلية النار عليه, إلا أنه يواصل تقدمه ويحيل ما حوله إلى جحيم ويظل يتقدم.

they were the days when the Egyptians had balls.
its quite something that in most historical crisis russia always supported and supports the loosing side, over hundreds of years russia has been making bad decisions, quite amazing.
The Egyptians had a big war in Sinai. It was the closest thing to a third world war, NATO changed a lot after that
Except for getting rid of a Monarchy. Which is a lesson we ALL need to heed.
But egypt is rhe winning side in this war
@@user-or1rm1ol3q Did this video teach you nothing? While Israel initially suffered significant losses and was taken by surprise, it ultimately regained its footing and managed to repel the attacking forces. By the end of the conflict, Israel had advanced into Syrian territory in the Golan Heights and had crossed the Suez Canal into Egypt. In the broader context, both sides claimed victories: Egypt was able to regain some international respect and negotiate a disengagement agreement, while Israel demonstrated its military capability and strategic depth despite the initial setbacks. The war led to subsequent peace talks, including the Camp David Accords in 1978, which eventually resulted in a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt. Additionally, the aftermath of the Yom Kippur War set the stage for further conflicts, such as the Lebanon War in 1982, which arose from escalating tensions between Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and continued to influence the dynamics of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the years that followed. Over time, prolonged conflicts like these have profoundly shaped Israel, strengthening its military, fostering technological advancements, and reinforcing national unity, while also contributing to a complex socio-political landscape marked by ongoing security challenges. Russia’s involvement in the region, particularly its funneling of weapons to opposing sides, including Syria and various militant groups, has further complicated Israel's security environment and influenced its military strategies, compelling Israel to adapt and enhance its defense capabilities. So in my book; its still counted as yet another loss for Russia.
Russia was the main backer of North Vietnam. They assured them support in the Ho Chi Minh campaign in 1975. So they chose the winning side son...
Even Egyptian army have very few actual footage of the war because no journalist was allowed until ceasefire was confirmed
Most footage especially videos are after the war in 1974 exercise by Egyptian army to show how they crossed the canal
the first journalists were allowed on the 8th of October . but as you say- there was zero journalists on the 6th. the memoires of the EGypt chief of staff- AlShazly confirmed there was zero journalists on that day.
While Israeli pulled off a monumental victory against many nations it has to be said that the river crossing by the Egyptians was a excellent display of military operations
Incredible that they could crosse the river ans stand in opposite Side with heavy equipment

Война закончилась разгромом египетской армии... но египтяне празднуют ее как свою победу.Как это вообще может быть? )))
The Egyptian offensive was indeed a surprise..they quickly gained the momentum and was able to gain more than half of the Sinai but there..somehow the momentum shifted on the advantage of the Israelis but what really amazes me is how the Israelis decided to trap the entire Egyptian army..i watch most of the Israeli war documentaries and i find them to be brilliant in war tactics and strategies..i think that this war did not end the way the Egyptians planned it to be but they got what they wanted for a very valuable price for an Israeli..Egypt got back the Sinai in exchange for peace..
Israel was forced into submission to give back Sinain the Israeli didn't really care about peace
The war started in 1973 to liberate Sinai. While Sinai hacked to Egypt in 1982

Who wins in this war?
If you ask Google in Arabic, it will say (Egypt won), and if you ask it in English, it may deceive you and say (Israel). If you want to know the truth, look at the world map now: Egypt regained the Sinai Peninsula and the Suez Canal. Or read the memoirs of Israeli criminal leaders as they weep bitterly over their defeat.
The egyptians and their allies came with the most modern and powerful weapons in the world at that time against Israel, but Israel went against them with Almighty God and proved, definitively, that God's promise to the children of Israel is real: Israel will never be destroyed!
You know that God promised the Muslims that the Children of Israel would defeat them at their hands and we would enter Jerusalem as conquerors and welcome, as the Qur’an revealed.
Moloch
1- without American air bridge Israel couldn't do anything.
2- Syria and Egypt had old Mig 21 as main fighter jet while Israel had advanced multiroles F-4 phantom and Mirage .
3- Syria and Egypt had soviet T-55 with less range than Israeli tanks .
4- all the advanced Arabs weapons were only defensive like SAM missiles.
Above all these , it's brave enough to attack an enemy with nuclear technology while you have such a Soviet trash.
It wasn't the Arabic soldier who lost the battle, but the Arabic policy.
What are you talking about lil bro 😂😂
@@tadzyxd1190 I'm talking about something you don't know
Combates muy difícil
To quote Brezhnev.
We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, "Save me!" He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."

It seems that the fighting was too terrible to how to even supporting Arab audiences or there was too little of it actually recorded during the battle.

❤❤❤❤EGYPT ❤❤ Egypt and the Egyptians, they are the first civilization in the world and until now Egypt's civilization amazes everyone and has many secrets, the Egyptians are also a people who can be relied upon in everything, yes the truth is that the hand of old and modern colonialism is always trying to obstruct their path because they will light up the world with all good and without compensation, old and modern colonialism does not want that, it only wants to enslave all people in the world, so Egypt and the Egyptians fought, maybe there is peace but colonialism is still squatting on the ruling systems in Egypt by using its agents so that they do not make the Egyptians advance technologically or economically, they always want Egypt in a state of poverty so that it does not have the ability to innovate and develop civilization for the world for free as happened in modern history from the period from 1954 to 1974, after the war they hired mercenaries to trap Egypt and put them in all fields and ministries and all the administrative apparatus in the state until they made it fall (the same game they set to trap the Soviet Union and its collapse) then they opened the markets inside it and prevented local industry Which was one of the best industries in the pain, then after 10 years they started selling all the companies and factories and their lands to enemies from outside Egypt, so Egypt fell into economic problems from that day until now and is suffering, a great revolution will take place in Egypt that will expel all these traitors and return Egypt to the great Nasserite era, which is Egyptian National Socialism, which proved its success in the era of leader Gamal Abdel Nasser from 1954 to 1970, and apart from that, the Egyptians are truly God's chosen people
☝️
..and yet the Egyptians suffered one of the great military defeats of modern warfare.

The crossing was basically a super expensive failure. But it resulted in the Israelis realising that they can't keep the Sinai forever, that Egypt failed this time, but maybe next time would be more successful. So, they ordered Jewish settlers in the Sinai to pack their bags, withdrew their forces and came to a peace agreement with Egypt. Why do we always have to first have wars before we agree to peace?
