In the last of a three-part series marking 50 years since the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, soldiers and politicians relive the battle and beyond.
The term “shuttle diplomacy” was first used to describe US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger's meetings in Moscow, Egypt and Israel, when all the parties involved sought a diplomatic solution to the conflict. At the same time, a massive US airlift began to carry weapons to Israel, while Arab armies were equipped with the latest Soviet armaments.
The war of weapons, diplomacy and a media battle was at its most intense for three weeks - but it took 243 days for both sides to sign a peace agreement. Both Egypt and Israel still claim to be the victors today.

I saw this documentary a few years ago and I watched it again this week, a great piece of work. Hats off to General Saad El Shazaly, he was ahead of his time.

Very good documentary and the best i have seen covering Egypt/Israeli war in 1973. I hope one day we live in peace and such senseless violence be a thing of the past. The price those brave men, Egyptians and Isrealie was greatly paid and we all rejoice to the blessing of peace for 50 years.

For those who complained about Israel receive 20,000 tons of weapons from the US. Arab Nations received 120,000 tons of weapons from USSR before the war and more during the war.

After seeing so many biased pieces taking the narrative of either one side, or the other, this one is surprisingly unbiased and fair in its assessment. The authors and Al Jazeera deserve praises and respect for a job well done.

General Saad el shazly… this guy I salute for his undoubtedly love for his country even he was the one planned and didn’t get any recognitions after the war. I salute you General

Extraordinary documents!!!!!! Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!
-
I appreciate AlJazeera teams hard work behind this documentary very well prepared.
-
very good documentary overall.
-
The best documentary series i,ve seen in a long long time. Very well made.
-
Got to love the "unbiased" choice of music for these videos: An exciting, upbeat and dramatic theme for the Egyptians, yet a dismal dirge for the Israelis. Al Jazeera can't help itself.
-
If you complain about usa siding with israel, to be fair the arabs did side with USSR.
-
They always list the total of Israel 🇮🇱 dead and they forget to tell us total of Arabs dead 😅
-
History repeats itself..
-
These are very well done. I commend all who worked on them, they achieved an excellent narrative that helps bring us reality and may we learn and find that war destroys all of us..
-
There is a saying "arabs are bad at war" and it was echoed well in this war ,a small nation beating an Arab coalition including Egypt, Syria etc
-
great doco, i do like the AJ versions, I was unaware isreal continued to avoid peace deals to suit its objectives and was unaware Egypt offered a long term peace to get Sinai back before conflict started in Oct 1973
-
I want to congratulate Al-Jazera for this EXCELENT HISTORY DOCUMENTARY. I'm a History teacher, so, this is 100% COLD HISTORY!!!
-
WAR WILL NEVER BE THE ANSWER TO SOLVE A PROBLEM BUT DO WE LISTEN 😢
