Six-Day War

=== Jews in Arab countries ===
{{Main|Jewish exodus from Arab and Muslim countries}}

In the Arab nations, populations of minority Jews faced persecution and expulsion following the Israeli victory, contributing to the [[Jewish exodus from Arab and Muslim countries|Jewish exodus from Arab lands]], which had been ongoing since 1948. As a result, Jewish populations in Arab countries further diminished as many Jews emigrated to Israel and other Western countries. According to historian and ambassador [[Michael Oren]]:{{Sfnp|Oren|2002|pp=306–307}}

<blockquote>Mobs attacked Jewish neighbourhoods in Egypt, Yemen, Lebanon, Tunisia, and Morocco, burning synagogues and assaulting residents. A [[1967 Tripoli pogrom|pogrom in Tripoli, Libya]], left 18 Jews dead and 25 injured; the survivors were herded into detention centres. Of Egypt's 4000 Jews, 800 were arrested, including the chief rabbis of both [[Cairo]] and [[Alexandria]], and their property sequestered by the government. The ancient communities of [[Damascus]] and [[Baghdad]] were placed under house arrest, their leaders imprisoned and fined. A total of 7000 Jews were expelled, many with merely a satchel.</blockquote>
