Made out of metal with a size of ca. two metres, the statue ‘Crossing the impossible – the Bar Lev Line and the Suez Canal’ was erected in front of the Panorama October in 1979. It symbolizes the surprise victory of the Egyptian forces against the Israeli army at the beginning of the 1973 war, when crossing the strategically important Suez Canal. Today the statue is missing.
