The 69 Squadron of the Israeli Air Force saw extensive action in which war between the Arab and Israeli fighters in 1973?
Yom Kippur War The Yom Kippur War, Ramadan War, or October War (Hebrew: מלחמת יום הכיפורים‎ ‎ , "Milẖemet Yom HaKipurim ", or מלחמת יום כיפור", Milẖemet Yom Kipur "; Arabic: حرب أكتوبر‎ ‎ , "Ḥarb ʾUktōbar ", or حرب تشرين , "Ḥarb Tišrīn "), also known as the 1973 Arab–Israeli War, was a war fought by a coalition of Arab states led by Egypt and Syria against Israel from October 6 to 25, 1973. The fighting mostly took place in the Sinai and the Golan Heights, territories that had been occupied by Israel since the Six-Day War of 1967. Egyptian President Anwar Sadat wanted also to reopen the Suez Canal. Neither specifically planned to destroy Israel, although the Israeli leaders could not be sure of that.
Arab al-Mawasi massacre On November 2, 1948, two squads of Israeli Defense Forces soldiers captured an encampment of Bedouins at Khirbat al-Wa'ra al-Sawda' in the eastern Galilee. While some soldiers guarded the Arabs, others went to a nearby hilltop where the headless bodies of two Israeli soldiers were found. In retaliation, the Arabs' dwellings were destroyed and 15 or 16 adult males were shot, 14 of whom died.
