Yeah.

So take us to five past two in the afternoon because that time is very notable.

Enormous pressure aimed at them.

Within four and a half hours, just four and a half hours, the Egyptians managed to blast 80 separate breaches in the Balef Sand Rampart.

80 gaps, 80 spaces wide enough to carry vehicles and bridges and armor, 3 million cubic meters of packed sand.

And think of it as the beach analogy of, you know, sort of these enormous structures which just crumble with the blast of water.

Join us after the break where we take you through the next few hours of what everybody thought was impossible.

Welcome back.

This must have been like a catastrophic, unimaginable bolt from the blue.

When you say it's coordinated, you're saying Egypt and Syria knew exactly minute by minute what was going to happen.

This is all pre-agreed.

Is that what you're saying?

To golden mare.

Also because, you know, they've gone through the Six-Day War, really.

You know, they know what it is.

They're not bothered.

You know, what's the worst they can do?

And then suddenly you've got this pincer movement.

What is the Israeli response to that?

I'm really intrigued, though, but what people like Moshe Dayan, who we've spoken about before, he of the iconic eyepatch, the defense minister, hero of 1967, a man who was held up as, look, we can withstand a six-day war and be victorious.
