Issuance of the Khartoum Resolution

Date: September 1, 1967 • Location: Cairo, Egypt

Six-Day War: The Khartoum Resolution is issued at the Arab Summit, and eight countries adopt the "three 'no's against Israel".

The Six-Day War, or the 1967 Arab–Israeli war, was fought between Israel and a coalition of six Arab states, primarily Egypt, Syria, and Jordan, in the context of the Arab–Israeli conflict. The war, in which Israel conquered and occupied the Sinai Peninsula, the Gaza Strip, the West Bank of the Jordan River, East Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights, shaped the political and strategic landscape of the Middle East into the 21st century. Many of the war's consequences remain unresolved.
