On Yom Kippur in 1973 Egyptian forces attacked the Bar-Lev line( set up by the Israeli army after the conquest of the Sinai peninsula by Israel in 1967). The Egyptians had initial success but were eventually pushed back by Israeli forces led by General Sharon. At the time of the UN mandated cease fire the Israeli army had crossed the Suez Canal and were on the Eastern shore of the Suez canal.
