Explanation:

On October 31, 1956, Great Britain and France bombarded several Egyptian military targets to force the reopening of the Suez Canal, nationalized by Egyptian President Nasser the previous July. The action was coordinated with Israel, which on October 29 had invaded the Gaza Strip and the Sinai Peninsula, giving a pretext for Anglo-French intervention. The operation continued with the sending of troops five days later. The condemnation of the international community would finally achieve the withdrawal of the Anglo-French forces and the dispatch of United Nations troops. Both these and the Israelis would not withdraw from the Canal until 1957.
