What type of war is the Arab-Israeli Conflict?

There are numerous Conflicts and Quasi-Conflicts in the Arab Israeli Conflict.Arab-Israeli War of 1947-1949Neutral Name: Arab-Israeli War of 1948Israeli Name: Israeli War of IndependenceArab Name: Nakba (Great Catastrophe)Result: The Jewish Militias defeated the Arab Militias and the armies of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and auxiliary forces from Saudi Arabia and Yemen. The ceasefire established a State larger than the one provided by the provisions of UN Resolution 181.Arab-Israeli War of 1956Neutral Name: Suez CrisisIsraeli Name: Sinai WarArab Name: The War of Tripartite AggressionResult: In five days the Israeli army captured Gaza, Rafaḥ, and Al-ʿArīsh-taking thousands of prisoners-and occupied most of the peninsula east of the Suez Canal. The ceasefire ceded this land back to Egypt in return for navigation rights on the canal and through the Straits of Tiran.Arab-Israeli War of 1967Neutral Name, Israeli Name, and Arab Name: Six-Day WarResult: Within the brief span of six days, the IDF overran the whole Sinai peninsula, up to the Suez Canal; took the entire West Bank of the River Jordan; and in the last days, without the benefit of surprise, captured a great part of the Golan Heights, including the dominant Mount Hermon - from then on "the eyes and ears of Israel". The culminating event was the capture of the Old City of Jerusalem and the re-encounter with the place most revered by Jews, the Western (Wailing) Wall. The blowing of the shofar at the Western Wall reverberated throughout the world.Arab-Israeli War of 1967-1970Neutral Name, Israeli Name, and Arab Name: War of AttritionResult: No change in status before the war began.
