5 June, 1967
[Jenin, West Bank]: [H2H] [HIS] [GD]: When Israeli went to war against Egypt on 5 June 1967, Egypt's Arab ally Jordan initially responded by making long range indirect fire attcks on various Israeli settlements. At first the Israelis ignored them as they considered them to be Jordan's way of showing Arab solidarity without becoming decisively engaged. But when the Jodanians started making indirect fire attcks on Tel Aviv and various Israeli air bases. the Isrelis took them seriously and decided to go to war with Jordan. In northern Samaria in the West Bank this entailed caapturing the town of Jenin and knocking out Jordan's long rnge artillery assets. To accomplish this the Isrelis assigned the "Peled" Division to ttack into Samaria against the towns of Jenin Qabitiya. Defending these towns was the Jordanian 25th Infantry Brigade, later reinforce by the 40th Armored Brigade. This is the revised version of the original scenario created by Abu Ben Kappely. [1.02]

Israeli Shermans & AMX-13s no match for the Jordanian M-47, 489s, but the Israelis have allot of them plus a few Centurions to go with them. Nice map for long range gunnery.
