In the last of a three-part series marking 50 years since the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, soldiers and politicians relive the battle and beyond.

The term “shuttle diplomacy” was first used to describe US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger's meetings in Moscow, Egypt and Israel, when all the parties involved sought a diplomatic solution to the conflict. At the same time, a massive US airlift began to carry weapons to Israel, while Arab armies were equipped with the latest Soviet armaments.

The war of weapons, diplomacy and a media battle was at its most intense for three weeks - but it took 243 days for both sides to sign a peace agreement. Both Egypt and Israel still claim to be the victors today.
