AI notes: On June 9, 1967, a ceasefire was declared, effectively ending active hostilities in the Six-Day War between Israel and the neighboring Arab states of Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. The war, which began on June 5, 1967, saw Israel launch preemptive strikes against Egypt and rapidly advance on multiple fronts. By the time of the ceasefire, Israel had captured the Sinai Peninsula, Gaza Strip, West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights, dramatically altering the geopolitical map of the region. The ceasefire was arranged through United Nations mediation, and it marked the start of a tense and unresolved period of occupation and territorial disputes that would influence Middle East politics for decades.
