The
USS Liberty incident was an attack on a
United States Navy technical research ship,
USS Liberty, by
Israeli Air Force jet
fighter aircraft and
Israeli Navy motor torpedo boats, on 8 June 1967, during the
Six-Day War.
[3] The combined air and sea attack killed 34 crew members (naval officers, seamen, two Marines, and one civilian), wounded 171 crew members, and severely damaged the ship.
[4] At the time, the ship was in
international waters north of the
Sinai Peninsula, about 25.5
nmi (29.3 mi; 47.2 km) northwest from the Egyptian city of
Arish.

Israel apologized for the attack, saying that the USS
Liberty had been attacked in error after being mistaken for an Egyptian ship.
[6] Both the Israeli and
U.S. governments conducted inquiries and issued reports that concluded the attack was a mistake due to Israeli confusion about the ship's identity,
[2] though others, including survivors of the attack, have rejected these conclusions and maintain that the attack was deliberate.
