History: Sinai Liberation Day marks the final withdrawal of Israeli military forces from the Sinai Peninsula in 1982, following the Camp David Accords agreed upon by Egypt and Israel in 1978. The accords led to the signing of the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty in 1979, which stipulated that Israel return the occupied territory of Sinai to Egypt. The retrieval of land was a significant event as it restored Egyptian sovereignty over Sinai, which had been captured by Israel during the Six-Day War in 1967.
Traditions and Celebrations:
On Sinai Liberation Day, Egyptians celebrate their historical victory and remember those who sacrificed their lives for their country's sovereignty. It is a public holiday where government offices, schools, and most businesses are closed.
