Aftermath of the war

Israel's victory was extremely devastating to the arabs, who expected victory for themselves. The fact that the war took only 6 days shows that Hashem is with Israel. The arab forces lost almost their entire air forces, and much of their armed weaponry. 10,000 Egyptians were killed in Siniai and Gaza alone, compared to the 300 Israeli casualties on that front. In all, Egypt lost about 11,000 troops, Jordan lost about 6,000, Syria lost about 1,000, and Israel lost about 700. Israel gained all of Jerusalem, The Golan Heights, Siniai, the Gaza Strip, and the West Bank.

This map shows all the lands that Israel gained after the war. Everything colored in yellow is what Israel gained.
