Soviet offer of Russian troops to defend Egypt
The Soviet Union proposed sending forces to oust Britain, France, and Israel from Egypt if the United Nations approved. Marshal Zhukov announced the threat as Britain and France ordered a cease-fire unless attacked. Egypt accepted the UN cease-fire after daylight but warned civilians and armed forces could resume fighting if fired upon.
