1950s Israel - Egypt War Wire Photos (80+)
In 1955, as retribution for Egyptian sponsored fedayeen raids into Israel, the Israeli army launched reprisal raids into Arab villages in the West Bank and Gaza. Sound familiar? As tensions came to a head, the resulting full military attacks in by Israel in 1956 put them on the map as a military force to be reckoned with. It also marked the beginning of a UN presence in the region as an emergency force was brought in to maintain security in the Gaza Strip. A massive lot of (80+) wire photos well documents this dawn of modern- era middle east conflict, when Israel emerged as a power player. Images include: Female Israeli soldiers with weapons; British frogmen fishing weapons out of a Suez Canal backwater; the arrival of international and UN peace-keeping forces. Sized from 8x10" to 7.5 x 14", the lot is fairly evenly distributed through a condition range from VG (mostly due to editing marks) to MT.
