Rotem Crisis
The Rotem Crisis ((ヘブライ語:רותם); broom) was a confrontation between Israel and the United Arab Republic in February–March 1960. Prompted by tensions along the Israeli–Syrian border, Egypt deployed its armed forces on Israel's largely undefended southern front, catching Israel off guard. Although hostilities did not break out, the crisis influenced events leading up to the 1967 Six Day War.
== Background ==
Following Israel's withdrawal from Sinai, captured during the 1956 Suez Crisis, the peninsula remained de facto demilitarized of most Egyptian forces. It was garrisoned by one infantry brigade, elements of several reconnaissance regiments and up to 100 tanks. Although the outcome of the Suez Crisis had been politically positive for Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser, Israel's Military Intelligence Directorate (Aman), as well as military and civilian decision makers, had regarded Israel's military victory in the war as an effective deterrent to future Egyptian designs. In early 1960 the Israeli Foreign Office therefore estimated that Egypt would seek 'to avoid a military confrontation with Israel and keep the UN Emergency Force' (UNEF), installed in the Gaza Strip following the crisis.〔
Unlike Israel's southern border, however, its northern border with Syria was prone to further conflicts, rooted in disputes over the nature and boundaries of Israel's demilitarized zones. These tensions along the border became more complicated in February 1958 with the establishment of the United Arab Republic, a political union of Egypt and Syria. Escalations on the northern border were henceforth likely to trigger a response on the relatively quiet front in the south.〔
