SIX-DAY WAR, 5-10 JUNE 1967 -- ESTABLISHMENT OF MARTIAL LAW IN THE WEST BANK

HERZOG, Chaim. Proclamation concerning the effective date of Security Provisions Order. Proclamation No. 3. [N.p.:] 7 June 1967. Poster (265 x 480mm), text printed in Hebrew and Arabic. (One vertical ceasefold.)

VERY RARE PROCLAMATION POSTER WITH LONG-LASTING CONSEQUENCES THAT CONTINUE TO THIS DAY. Israel's pre-emptive strike against Egypt in the Sinai on 5 June 1967 sowed confusion, and Nasser induced Syria and Jordan to attack Israel, incorrectly claiming that Egypt had thwarted Israel's air attack. After initial Jordanian shelling and air-raids, Jordanian ground troops advanced up Government House Ridge, Jerusalem, on 5 June. However, the Israeli airforce, in two waves, destroyed all of Jordan's fighter planes, and with the huge advantage of air supremacy, started an offensive operation in the afternoon of 5 June to encircle Jerusalem. By 7 June, with heavy fighting continuing, Defence Minister Moshe Dayan - who had initially ordered Israeli troops not to enter the Old City - changed his mind upon hearing that the UN was about to declare a ceasefire, and without cabinet clearance, decided to capture it. Simultaneously, to support the offensive in Jerusalem, the Israelis advanced into the West Bank. The present lot, issued by Herzog, Major General, Commander of the IDF in the West Bank, states that Security Provisions Order (SPO) No. 3 has been enforced. This bald statement belies the fact that this proclamation brought into immediate effect a system of military courts, based on the British-imposed 1945 Defence (Emergency) Regulations under the Mandatory Government. In effect a system of martial law, this British regulation has never been revoked or reformed, and still applies in the Occupied Territories today.
