the israelis were working closely with western journalists. just five miles from the wrong box and purely military terms it was a brilliantly conceived plan the israelis managed to see more with israeli firm troops in egypt. international correspondents accompanied to minister of defense moshe dyan on visits to israeli forces west of the canal. president sadat claimed the israeli operation and deficit while he was in a television stunt an attempt to cover up israeli failures in the first week of war . couple in fact it was a really serious problem i knew it was not just a media operation but that israeli breakthrough was a personal blow to me as a commander of the second army. davis walk the area now coming under israeli control was a rich agricultural land. totally different from the waist does it of sinai.

egyptian special forces working in small groups use the last undergrowth to set ambushes for the israeli troops. it was clear. why was i was so confident because i knew they were up to the job i had faith in the troops and commanders. i had lived with them for a long time i was the commander of the part of troops for three years and i knew them to be brave fighters real men and reliable. egyptian chief of staff general sada szczesny realize the war plan was on the verge of disaster. antitank squads would desperately needed on the west bank of the canal to help stop the israeli advance. but in ordering them to cross back from sinai

shadley was breaking presidential orders. so that. and so that had set his mind on the fact that since we had taken bridgeheads on the eastern side of the canal we should never leave the east whatever happened he thought at least now we are on the eastern side of the canal and so he gave orders that not even one rifle should be pulled back from east to west. so how can we stop them how can we stop them how can we stop the enemy when we have no troops and ninety percent of our troops are on the eastern side of the canal not fighting and have nothing to do anyway at the end it was the president and the war minister on one side and the on the other whose orders are going to prevail you figured out. that. says lee who had masterminded egypt's initial

success. i was sidelined. from now on sadat and his woman mr general after my dismay i would take all the decisions. when the israeli forces crossed to the western side of the canal they inflicted massive damage to the logistical units in the rear which were unchanged units so what was their goal just to create as much terror as possible all. now the egyptian high command was running out of options and force commander mubarak ordered his pilots into the air. and of already a member once i was entering the operation room and i heard general hosni mubarak on the radio speaking to our brigade commander has unfathomable of others that has and saying sir don't you see what's like reply doesn't scramble.

there are dangerous enemy targets but you have to scramble don't you. if you didn't scramble what would happen those readers will advance and everything you've done would be in vain. egyptian pilots also found themselves facing a new threat from the israeli it's from the ground from occupied territory west of the canal. adoor be the fact they came across with a mobile air defense system hokum assad asked those missiles brought down many of our aircraft while me on the colleague we were attacked by hopeless ours it took me by surprise and i said to myself oh god swayze is firing at me and then one of her songs one of the. after more than two weeks of war it seemed all this bloodshed was about to come to an end. on the twenty second of october the u.n.

security council adopted resolution three three eight calling for a ceasefire in the middle east. bloody battles have been going on and taking casualties and destruction the situation has been created in this area seriously ministers the maintenance of international peace. eight hundred fifty two middle eastern time the fighting would stop. in desperate battles on the western side of the canal egypt had lost hundreds of men. two of its senior commanders. who design and when he met a family had died in the fighting. but despite these losses egyptians had stopped the israelis from achieving the strategic goal of stout talk to the man. today just south of the

city of a smiley israeli tanks remain at the point where their advance was stopped and its tracks. headway at that point at the cairo through the road had not been cut and neither the third nor the second army was besieged but then who said anything about israel respecting un security council resolutions and in the slave that then commitments. as the hour of the cease fire approached american secretary of state henry kissinger arrived in tel aviv. the ceasefire he had just spoken straighted with the soviets had come too soon for israel they were desperate to fight on to consolidate their position. kissinger agreed to turn a blind eye. witness so that israel had a greater interest in the cease fire and couldn't get it right at the moment

because the hard work to do so terror it was to corruption. as morning broke on the twenty third of october israeli forces went into action as though no ceasefire existed. to aman divisions commanded by generals after hamadan and conmen magen. braced southwards by pulsing egyptian resistance points and a dash towards us. a may have a problem with us the support of illness to get to within eighty kilometers of cairo and with three divisions i think that considering where we started from to reach where we did it was a huge achievement but we paid the price in blood in my battalion sixty seven of my soldiers were killed almost one hundred injured well if. by nightfall on the twenty third the israelis had managed to cut the kyra so as

road and by passed so as city to reach the port of ajdabiya. the egyptian third army dug in on the eastern side of the canal now found itself under siege surrounded by israeli troops on every side. one hundred. million there was a state of the wonderment and feet of the one nine hundred sixty seven soon are you that what happened in june sixty seven would happen again and now we are at their mercy that the holiday. in new york at eleven pm middle eastern time on the twenty third of october the reconvened security council issued resolution three three nine. it called for a new cease fire to go into effect at seven am the following day. but again israel was to break the second ceasefire. of the form.

of you see their main target was a big city and the conquering of a big city either a small or swiss a city with a big name they were fighting more of a media battle but at the same time they wanted to achieve a big political goal. until the six day war suez was a flourishing industrial city imports. but after nine hundred sixty seven the city found itself on the front line between egypt and israeli occupied sinai. a target for israeli attacks it was soon reduced to rubble.

a city of a quarter of a million people now lay virtually abandoned. early on october the twenty fourth just as the new cease fire was scheduled to start israeli tanks and power troops moved into the semi deserted city. but they soon encountered stiff resistance from a small city militia. to help those tanks enter the city and ibrahim son a man hit the first of them to a man's shell went through the tanks hatch at the drivers throat and stopped the tank that was the first act to stop in so race. so all the tanks and armored vehicle stopped after that one because it blocked the street while we knew very

well as we did that if any tank stops in a city it becomes a mobile tomb so the abandoned their tanks and ran to the nearby buildings where the where should be all the from. the israelis were driven from the city using eighty debt and one hundred twenty wounded. to this day destroyed israeli tanks remain a testimony to the courageous resistance and sue ice. despite this setback israel's disregard of the cease fire was buying it precious territory elsewhere causing consternation in moscow. so this course is an earldom up to the total of little interest when israel ignored the u.n.

cease fire and continued fighting it became clear that there were different points of view in the soviet government some people thought we should put pressure on them to make them adopt a ceasefire make them behave properly. couple minutes. on the twenty fourth of october at nine thirty five pm washington time an alarming message arrived from moscow. it said the soviets were considering taking unilateral action to impose the ceasefire in the middle east. what there were there were some exercises several airborne divisions were put on alert but i don't think there was a military contingent ready to land the next day in the middle east it was more likely to be political pressure not military although some people for example our

minister of defense were very keen on the idea. with president nixon submerged in the mire of the watergate scandal. it was left to henry kissinger to handle the crisis. kissinger decided to respond to the soviet threat with a show of force. this eleven forty one pm washington time the american armed forces state of alert was raised to defense condition three the highest in peacetime. well the question of the us versus soviet union. always boils down to mutual annihilation we could have killed everybody in the soviet union they could have killed everybody and ited states and the rest of the world would have gone it was an absolutely insane situation the thing that saved it was that each side knew that if

a war occurred the leaders themselves would get killed and so when you know that you're going to get killed in a war not just some poor peasant soldiers going to get killed you make different decisions about starting a war faced with the possibility of a spiral towards nuclear will the next day twenty fifth of october the soviet stepped back. the alert was defused. we do not consider it. but the soviet union we do not believe it is not at this moment. in fact we have been over the operative story that really. made me a better. for a full twenty four hour as the world had stood on the brink of between the two great nuclear powers but common sense at prevailed.

on october the twenty fifth the un security council issued resolution three forty the third and less than four days to finally impose a ceasefire in the middle east. the following day the vanguard of a new you and emergency force arrived at the suez front. but despite their presence skirmishes continued between egyptian and israeli troops on the western bank of the canal. so this violation started almost in me in a while because what will happen when the war stopped was that it stopped in the middle of ongoing military operations so there were no natural lines of them or cation the forces were nearly mixed on the battlefield.

with no clear border lines between forces a major breakthrough was needed to end the fighting and secure the fragile un ceasefire. it would come when it gyptian xin israelis mete negotiations on the battlefield. for the first time in the twenty five year history of the state of israel. eradicating leprosy in cambodia relies on education treatment. in equal measure on . him but he early you know disability yes jail be vivi wait until three year old four year more he'll have this ability. of it and then no wait the next generation of antibiotics may just be way taking at the bottom of the ocean maybe this could

on the northern front on the golan heights the third week of the october war opened with syrian and israeli forces locked in a stalemate. syria's initial thrust to recapture this territory occupied by israel in the six day war had been repulsed and a counterattack by hastily called up israeli reservists. by the end of the first week of war syrian troops had been forced to withdraw while the israelis pushed on across the one nine hundred sixty seven cease fire line towards the syrian capital. of. view of chicken little i think that stopping thirty five kilometers short of damascus was smart you must end

a war in a position from which the statesman can start negotiating saw final position was good for him and me. to hone. as the balance shifted in favor of israel other arab countries sent troops and support. the syrian front was strengthened by the arrival of expeditionary forces from iraq jordan saudi arabia and kuwait. this cocktail of arab forces would now be used in a counterattack to drive the israelis back out of the pocket they had occupied in the syrian mainland. ulan bator free and. saw the real such a survey. on the twenty first of october we heard there was a big attack planned. it was to be carried out by iraqi and sunni forces to reclaim

. retreat and back to the position on the fifth of october. of that stage we hoped we could restore what had been lost on the syrian front. of a. lawful thing in the asylum and. surely. the attack was set for the twenty third of october. but it would never happen. on the twenty second egypt's president and what sadat unilaterally accepted a un cease fire that would take effect that evening. syrian president hafez assad now faced the prospect of fighting alone on the single front . as the twenty third drew to a close the syrians to bow to the inevitable assad would have no choice but to

accept the ceasefire times. at the israelis were not done with fighting yet. a key listening post had been captured by syrian paratroopers on the first day of war. with just a few hours left before the cease fire israel's golani brigade attacked. after facing fierce syrian resistance they finally secured their prize. but only after suffering heavy losses. fifty five dead and seventy nine wounded. the ships lived through it was really important for israel to raise the country's flag on the go lonnie brigades flag on top of mount hermon on the last day of the

war. and to prevent the syrians from securing any sort of success from this war. on the suez canal front things were no better for the egyptians. these release had the entire egyptian third army besieged on the eastern side of the canal. thirty five thousand soldiers cut off from their supply lines. that may affect them and the side at least every day we had with us what was called combat russian three packs of small biscuits and two bottles of pressed. these things could provide you the necessary calories for one day but now it was all the food that was available for the soldier for five days and one that had a gun that was nothing but the other. but the israelis were also facing

a major problem for the first time in the history of arab israeli conflict egypt was holding a large number of prisoners of war. two hundred thirty in total. i want to hold for a while is here to get almost a country off from under it the arrival of the first prisoners lifted the morale of all our forces straight away egyptian military intelligence resorted to photographing them and putting those photos in the media to try and boost the morale not only of the armed forces but also of the egyptian people shakuntala. back in israel demonstrators soon took to the streets accusing god the eaves government of not doing enough to bring home the captured soldiers. goldeneye here have some time before offered who have whose really officers meet their egyptian counterparts. for the scuzz well most important for

her the release of israeli prisoners and also talk about letting supplies through to the third army but she insisted on meeting between the egyptians and these rulers who until then the return they are israel in exist they want to go counter. so it came as a surprise when the egyptians accepted just such negotiations. the meeting point was to be a tent erected at the sign marking one hundred one kilometers to cairo on the kyra's suez road. at one thirty am on the twenty eighth of october and for the first time ever egyptians and israelis were about to have direct negotiations. but the negotiations quickly became strained a skirmish just continued in the confusion of the battlefield.

but the logic then yemen on a different sort of battle started after the cease fire as we put into action a plan called revenge and another called total we had orders to keep the defense active not passive meaning we should not give up fighting. him at the second. on the thirtieth of october israeli prime minister told them a complicated matter still further when she made a morale boosting visit to israeli troops on the western side of the canal. on egyptian soil. meanwhile the effects of this war began to be felt globally. arab oil producing countries had formulated a plan to use the price of oil to pressure western supporters of israel. by mid

october several of the biggest producers had unilaterally raise prices by nearly twenty percent. full. worried about it did drove futures prices up and people were but man has on a wanting to fill up their cars. i think it satisfied. a very real and important psychological need a mug's there. to have demonstrated. that they could take some action. now that this regional conflict was beginning to have international ramifications. on the sixth of november american secretary of state henry kissinger flew into cairo. for his first ever meeting with anwar sadat. they started

talking about israel pulling back to the so-called october twenty second war it's where they should have stopped business as you know we could argue for weeks and weeks and weeks over this and at the end they would still be on your territory of water solve a lot but if that's what you want we'll do it and sort out so what's the alternative you said give me a little bit more time and we'll go for a bigger agreement that will get them completely off the west bank of the corral back in the sinai and so that's a fun let's do the big step not the small thank you four days after this meeting an initial agreement was signed and the ten to kilometer one zero one . the first step in kissinger's grand plan. the agreement guaranteed the egyptians daily convoys of nonmilitary supplies to the

city of suez and the besieged third army. for israel the key point of the agreement was an exchange of prisoners. israeli prison as arriving back and tell of the when met by huge crowds. prime minister golda my ear was moved to tears by the occasion. and if the hotter than if it worked. its hard to describe my feelings when i saw the coastline of my country from the plane we landed at a military air base and once the doors were opened we saw the israeli soldiers coming in not egyptians because when you come down the steps and you saw the applause in the church is an amazing feeling the soul now the oil the core lot.

thus the. as the new year arrived henry kissinger returned to the region. to hammer out the next step in his grand plan for egyptian israeli disengagement. on the eleventh of january he met with sadat in the southern egyptian city of aswan. the. next day in the afternoon kissinger left for television to meet up with the israelis. after week flying between aswan a city famous for its winter sun. and television experiencing its first ever snow storm. both sides accepted a disengagement agreement. a new term had entered the lexicon of international politics shuttle diplomacy. over this

could be airport when you can. get really really. the face of it. on the eighteenth of january general mohammad an egyptian chief of staff. and general divied early as at his israeli counterpart signed the agreement in the tent at kilometer one hundred one. it was the first in a chain of agreements that would lead to total israeli withdrawal from sinai and april nine hundred eighty two. thousand had a possible war of the significance of that war the october war was the impact it had not only on the political military and security level but only israeli citizen himself in accepting the idea that i can leave the land occupied to feel more

secure. the agreement stated that israeli forces west of the canal would withdraw to the east bank and further east into sinai a reduced egyptian force would stay on the eastern side of the canal and positions they had captured during the war. un forces would police the buffer zone between the two armies. and entertainment troops came one day to sing for the soldiers on the western bank of the canal and be included in the repertoire of song left over from the six day war making fun of egyptian soldiers. running away and leaving their boots in the sand when they finished singing the soldiers came up and suggested that they take the soul out of the repertory it was not appropriate and. by the end of january the israelis had finished the first

stage of their withdrawal from the western side of the canal. the route to the city of suez was authentic. after almost a hundred days the siege of the third on me was lifted. three weeks later egypt enjoyed a day of celebration. in the gypsum parliament sadat tell the ceremony to decorate and promote the heroes of the armed forces. but one name was missing from the rhone of on a. general side to show. the man who had formulated the original plan for the war. and then they are many that doesn't matter at all look

i see. no position in real life i am seeking the afterlife along with. but what matters to me is egypt my worst fear is the demi stakes of the uk to war and there were mistakes despite the undoubtedly glorious achievements of the our children and grandchildren will make the same mistakes if you don't learn from it egypt is what matters to me not even i will get my reward from a loss of a willing and again the law. by the end of february israeli troops had completed the final stage of their withdrawal from the western side of the canal. that moved us the israelis pulled out this ice here and myself and this was a bit like a carnival and basically they were released. why.

these were assessed soldiers they've been called up for months they wanted to come home. but even as israel soldiers celebrated the mood back home was different. israel lost twenty six hundred killed. per capita. this is treat her as the death rate of the americans in vietnam over ten years. this israel suffered in three weeks. as the public wanted to know how come the israeli. civilian and military leadership were surprised by a mass arab a two front attack it how come the they were caught with their pants down and they

also wanted to know why the army performed so poorly in those first few days. less than six months after the start of the war a commission of investigation headed by shimon i cannot president of the israeli supreme court would place the blame family on the military. three army heads would roll. chief of staff general david. commander of southern command general shmuel gunmen. and head of military intelligence general alys aida. the commission cleared prime minister golda may it and defense minister moshe diana. but the israeli public were not appeased. and demonstrations broke out on the streets. nine days after the commission published its report the prime minister resigned. and a q's opening.

and still accuse golda meir of killing. wanted to tall the israeli soldiers in the long haul many egyptian soldiers because of her sheer stupidity and obstinacy. yet it would be two months before mrs made would leave office there was unfinished business with the syrians. since the ceasefire of the twenty third of october the previous year the situation on the golan front had remained inflammable. skirmishes breaking out regularly. the israeli still occupied a salient deep inside the syrian mainland not far from the capital damascus. when family look if you remember a few more horror for work in iraq we went through some hard days and nights them.

staying strong emotionally was difficult because of the depression or the uncertainty the physical conditions also made it difficult to live in the open during the winter. and that winter of seventy three seventy four was very harsh. in may nine hundred seventy four kissin just set out on his second round of shuttle diplomacy. this time between tell of these and damascus. after almost a month of hard talking to managed to secure a second breakthrough in the region. on the twenty eighth of may one thousand nine hundred seventy slug the government of israel approved the disengagement agreement with syria.

this is a day that we hope syrian mothers israeli mothers syrian young wives israeli and wives children on both sides of the border and go to sleep at night without. care or. dreams of who knows if their day one is alive today will he be alive again and the next day. the agreement stated that israeli forces would withdraw from the pockets they were occupying in syria. syrian troops would return to almost the same positions they had started the war from with the un managed officers between the two. can a trial the largest city in golan would be returned to syria. in news on the fifth of june nine hundred seventy four the agreement was signed in

geneva by senior military officers of both sides. of. the war in october was officially over on both fronts after two hundred forty three days of fighting. kissinger persuaded assad chemicals and get him to remove the gorilla. in the sense of tricked syria to disengage the grip of the good with. the syria recovered from a truck which the israelis grew up before the the tiny sliver of territory with everything else in israeli hands. the egyptians got what they wanted out of it so you know sadat had realistic goals about recovering the sinai and the war led to the recovery of the sinai for egypt so you've got to see that as a win for the egyptians. for the syrians they don't recall the golan so you go to see that as a defeat essential. for the israelis all smoothly they had reversed the course of

the war but they had suffered very heavy casualties so you kind of have to see it as a bit of a defeat for the israelis in terms of being caught by surprise. you know a person in his life has three four friends who are close to their hearts and in their souls possibly of another of them returned with me so i definitely don't think there are any winners in your age there will be someone who loses more someone who loses less but there are no winners in wars and that's something which has stayed with me since nine hundred seventy three because the. picture was. going to lead up to us least most of the company no more. we used to train for our return to kargil you knew soldiers who had died during this or duct operation and you know their wives their mothers we knew each other the families very well when i

saw them i hid under the crane see what can you say to them do you get my point you see that expect in our eyes and they look at you search. what can you say the suffering churns you up inside you feel like exploding of course you cry this command or not it's just a human reaction what can you say to them his children what do you say to a wife who comes with two kids waiting for their falling and wanes then the ball.

type of crime that is also destroying mexico this is what's left of a school that collapsed during last september's earthquake here in mexico city and these little angels represent the nineteen children who were crushed to death when a structure that was built illegally by the school's owner fell on top of them as he had apparently paid off local officials to turn a blind eye to the building code the victim's parents say that they died not because of the earthquake but because of corruption a phenomenon that is spreading like a disease throughout mexico and almost every aspect of life. which is why confronting crime violence and the widespread corruption that makes those things possible are the main issues for tens of millions of mexicans as they choose a new president. one has to be the criminal so they'd let you work in peace sometimes it's the police that the bribes corruption is everywhere. the

mexicans against corruption and impunity says the corruption costs the poorest thirty five percent. their income putting poverty and violence in a vicious circle and when you start healing the economy with those levels of violence and those levels of corruption of course nobody's going to want to invest and that's where you perpetrate and you have more inequality more poverty and of course more crime at that i mean that there is neither a silver bullet nor a presidential candidate with serious proposals to turn the tide and yet like millions of mexicans many seller hasn't given up fairly or he come here there will be or not now there will be a new government which has the power to do more we hope this time things will change. after losing so much hope she reminds us is the last thing you can lose you see in human i just see that mexico city south sudan's latest cease fire has

been violated just hours after coming into effect with at least twelve people killed in the north government forces and rebels are accusing each other of breaking the truce the agreement was signed by president salva kiir and rebel leader react machar in neighboring sudan at least fifty thousand people have been killed four million have been forced from their homes since the civil war began in two thousand and thirteen the un had warned both sides of stop the fighting by the end of june or they'd face sanctions over morgan has covered the conflict in south sudan extensively she has more on this. now the fact that there is a violation regardless of who started it and who's to blame shows that both leaders don't have complete control of their commands the fact that they would issue an order on a national scale to all their forces and there is a violation it shows that not every single commander on the ground is on board with this agreement of ceasefire but every commander is happy with what with all the negotiations happening whether it's in addis ababa or in khartoum or. the coming

round of talks in nairobi commanders come out and say we're not happy with this deal so they form their own factions and when the opposition leader again splits from the government again they join so what happens is you usually have people who are having grievances against the government or against the opposition forming their own alliances forming their own groups and then they merge together and then again separate this so many fraction groups conflict we have more than a dozen armed groups all of them fighting they have signed the cease fire recently but the fact remains that not everybody is on board with the agreements that are being negotiated not everybody is on board with. the cease fire to be signed and violated since the conflict started in twenty thirteen still ahead of al jazeera we take a look at the impact of war on. syrian government troops take several rebel held areas in southern province.
