It was called the Camp David Accords of 1979. The basic terms of the treaty were that Israel would withdraw from the Sinai Peninsula in phases until 1982 and return it to Egypt. Egypt, in turn, would recognize the State of Israel and maintain the Sinai Peninsula as a demilitarized zone.

Egypt ended its declaration of war with Israel, and agreed to sign a peace treaty.

In return, the Sinai Peninsula, which Israel had captured in 1956, was returned to

Egypt. Also as a result, Egypt's head of State was assassinated, by Egyptians who

could not forgive him for making peace with Israel.
