Sadat Ready to Reopen Canal as Israel Moves Back Forces
Israeli defense officials announced a staged withdrawal of 3500 soldiers and more than half frontline troops from the Suez area to ease tensions before Egypt reopens the canal. Israel will pull artillery and missiles to at least 18 miles from the waterway while keeping major guns behind the Mitla Pass. Rabin said Egypt could ban canal cargo without triggering a military response, though it could affect future negotiations.
