Fifty years ago this week, in late October 1973, the Yom Kippur War was ongoing, having started on October 6. This conflict involved Israel and a coalition of Arab states led by Egypt and Syria, and it significantly impacted Middle Eastern geopolitics. The war ultimately led to U.S.-brokered ceasefires and set the stage for future peace negotiations, including the Camp David Accords. Additionally, this period saw the beginning of the 1973 oil crisis, as OPEC imposed an oil embargo in response to Western support for Israel.
