The War of Attrition was a limited war fought between the Israeli military and forces of the Egyptian Republic, the USSR and the Palestine Liberation Organization from 1967 to 1970.

It was initiated by the Egyptians as a way of recapturing the Sinai from the Israelis, who had been in control of the territory since the mid-1967 "Six-Day War".

The hostilities ended with a ceasefire signed between the countries in 1970 with frontiers remaining in the same place as when the war began.
