The three-year war 1667-1970

When Field Marshal Mohamed Fawzi, one of the most important commanders of the modern Egyptian military, says that giving the term "setback" to the 1967 battle is an exaggeration, as the 1967 battle is nothing but a temporary losing battle... followed immediately by the continuation of fighting that lasted between Egypt and Israel for three consecutive years, this makes this book an important reference that the reader needs to correct many false ideas that spread over decades and settled in the minds of many. And because continuing the fighting required a deep understanding of this loss, Field Marshal Mohamed Fawzi, in the first part of this book, provides an accurate and objective analysis of internal and regional events since 1962, monitoring the causes and circumstances that led to the June 1967 battle, and the factors influencing its results. Then he details the tasks assigned to him after being appointed commander of the armed forces in 1967, and then Minister of War in 1968, which involved rebuilding and reorganizing the armed forces in preparation for the liberation of land, amid ongoing attempts by the enemy to hinder this effort. Thus, training soldiers and fighting the enemy actually took place simultaneously, creating a rare opportunity that combined raising the combat efficiency of the armed forces with understanding the enemy's fighting style and true capabilities. This arduous experience achieved a remarkable model of the victory of the Egyptian Arab will. Number of pages: 448 Year of publication: 2016 Publisher: Dar Al-Karma for Publishing and Distribution
