This Day in Israeli History: The End of Yom Kippur War.
Despite the heavy toll inflicted on Israel by the Egyptian and Syrian surprise attacks, the IDF managed to regroup and ended the war with more territory than it had at the start, advancing within 40 kilometers from Damascus and roughly one hundred kilometers from Cairo.
