Arab-Israeli tensions rose to a new height in the spring of 1967, as Israeli leaders issued increasingly severe warnings to Syria. Soviet and Syrian intelligence combined to warn Egypt that an Israeli attack on Syria was imminent. Nasser ordered troops into Sinai, asked the withdrawal of the UNEF and announced the closure of the Straits of Tiran to Israeli shipping. However, he believed that it was possible that the United States would restrain Israel from attacking and that he could score a tactical victory without fighting. He himself promised the Soviet Union and United States that Egypt would not strike first.

Key words: Military History. Near East. Arab-Israeli War. 1967.
