The military parade is taking part Monday in the Egyptian Military Academy.

On October 6, 1973 , October war – also known as 1973 Arab–Israeli War- began with a massive and successful Egyptian crossing of the Suez Canal. After crossing the cease-fire lines, Egyptian forces advanced virtually unopposed into the Sinai Peninsula.
