Syrian forces also storm the Golan Heights.
The attack surprises not only Israel but also the world.
In the north, Syrian forces outnumbering the Israeli defenders (eleven hundred Syrian tanks against one hundred and fifty-seven Israeli tanks) reach the outer perimeter of the Golan Heights overlooking the Hula Basin.
In the first few days of the war, Israeli counterattacks fail, Israel suffers hundreds of casualties, and loses nearly one hundred and fifty planes.
