Violence was ongoing during almost the entire period from 1950 through 1967 . It includes attacks on civilians in Israel carried out by the Jordanian Army , such as the Ramat Rachel archaeologists shooting attack , mass-casualty attacks on Israeli civilians carried out by Palestinian militants then usually called fedayeen , include the Yehud attack , the Ma'ale Akrabim massacre , the Beit Oved attack , the Shafir shooting attack , the 1956 Eilat bus ambush , the Ein Ofarim killings , and the Negev desert road ambush ; major Israeli attacks include the Beit Jalla , the Qibya massacre , the Nahalin reprisal raid , and the Rantis and Falameh reprisal raids . The Lavon Affair led to a deeper distrust of Jews in Egypt , from whose community key agents in the operation had been recruited , and as a result Egypt retaliated against its Jewish community . After Israel 's raid on an Egyptian military outpost in Gaza in February 1955 killed 37 Egyptian soldiers the Egyptian government began to actively sponsor , train , and arm the Palestinian volunteers from Gaza as fedayeen units which committed raids into Israel
