The correct answer is letter C

The Arab-Israeli wars were the conflicts fought between Israel and the Arab nations throughout the 20th century. These conflicts started with the creation of the State of Israel in 1948 and were motivated by the control of Palestine. In all, four conflicts were disputed between Israelis and the Arab nations.

This first war started after the proclamation of the State of Israel became known as the First Arab-Israeli War. This conflict lasted until January 1949 and started when forces from Egypt, Syria, Transjordan (now Jordan), Lebanon, Iraq, in addition to Palestinian forces, organized an attack against Israel.

The attack by the Arabs began with bombings on Tel Aviv, the capital of Israel, in addition to ground attacks by Arab armies. There was, however, a big difference in training between the two forces. Better preparedness by Israeli forces gave them an advantage in this conflict.

The war ended only on January 9, 1949, when the Arab nations signed an armistice with Israel, which emerged as the great winner of that war. At the end of the First Arab-Israeli War, the territory of Israel increased by about 1/3, and the Israelis came to dominate about 79% of the territory of Palestine
