Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Map of the Israeli attacks on Egyptian positions during Operation Pleshet.
Note: The map is as geographically accurate as possible, although since some of the streams were since diverted, and most of the maps from the period do not exactly match, it is difficult to say for sure, and small errors likely exist. |
