Ahmad Ismail Ali

His biography is available in 14 different languages on Wikipedia. Ahmad Ismail Ali is the 1,731st most popular military personnel, the 486th most popular biography from Egypt and the 9th most popular Egyptian Military Personnel.

Ahmad Ismail Ali is most famous for serving as Egypt's Minister of War and Commander-in-Chief during the Yom Kippur War in 1973, where he orchestrated the initial surprise attack on Israeli forces. A lesser-known fact is that he rose quickly through the ranks from an artillery officer to a top leadership role, partly due to his involvement in the 1952 Egyptian Revolution. His lasting legacy includes modernizing Egypt's military strategies and influencing the country's path toward peace negotiations, such as the Camp David Accords.
