# AC438 - 10-16-1967, Israel to Jordan, Opening Day of Israeli Post office
Cover Commemorates Opening Day of Israeli Post Office in the Golan Heights
In June 1967, Isreal fought the Arab states of Egypt, Syria, and Jordan. Known as the Six-Day War, Isreal gained land through its successful offensive. This included the Golan Heights, which had been part of Syria. On October 16, Isreal opened a post office in the city of Quneitra in the Golan Heights. This cover marks that event. It is a neat reminder of Israel's military victory decades ago.
