President Sadat of Egypt visits Israel

In 1977, Anwar Sadat became the first Egyptian president to visit Israel and address the Israeli parliament, or Knesset.

At the time, Egypt was still formally at war with Israel - a country which no Arab nation then recognised.

Sadat's visit led to a formal peace treaty betweem the two countries.
