President Sadat's peace deal in Jerusalem

20th November 1977

As President Sadat entered the old city of Jerusalem, I was standing on the top of our flat roofed two storey hotel with military officers who were providing protection. As I looked down I saw his car pass by, followed by a motorcade of security vehicles.

I took this photo as President Sadat entered the old city of Jerusalem from the top of the hotel I was staying at.

Muhammad Anwar el-Sadat was an Egyptian politician and military officer who served as the third president of Egypt, from 15 October 1970 until his assassination by fundamentalist army officers on 6 October 1981
