Not directly. The Independence of Israel was the direct cause of the Arab-Israeli War of 1948 (the Israeli Independence War), not the Arab-Israeli War of 1973 (the Yom Kippur War). The cause of the Arab-Israeli War of 1973 was for Egypt to reclaim the Sinai Peninsula and for the Syrians to reclaim the Golan Heights, both under legal Israeli Occupation pursuant to UNSC Resolution 242. However, if Israel had not achieved independence, it could not have occupied those territories and there would have been no Yom Kippur War, but this is probably not what the question was looking for.
