Yom Kippur War was fought to

  • A.Recover lost territories from Israel
  • B.Open access to Suez Canal
  • C.Occupy the territories of Lebanon
  • D.Destroy the PLO

Answer: A

It was fought to recover lost territories from Israel.

In October 1973, on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur, Egypt and Syria launched a surprise attack on Israel to regain the Sinai Peninsula and the Golan Heights, which they had lost in the Six-Day War of 1967.

Reopening the Suez Canal followed the later disengagement and peace process rather than being the war's aim. The occupation of Lebanese territory and the attempt to destroy the PLO belong to the 1982 Lebanon war.
