Overview

The Gulf War, also known as the Persian Gulf War, was a conflict between Iraq and a coalition of forces led by the United States and United Kingdom, which lasted from August 2, 1990 to February 28, 1991. The war ended with the defeat of Iraq and the establishment of a ceasefire agreement.

Background

The Gulf War began after Iraq invaded Kuwait on August 2, 1990. Iraq had long been at odds with Kuwait over oil production and other economic issues, and Saddam Hussein, the leader of Iraq, believed that Kuwait was illegally taking oil from Iraq. After the invasion, the United Nations imposed sanctions on Iraq and authorized the use of force if Iraq did not withdraw from Kuwait.

Conflict

In response to the invasion, a coalition of forces led by the United States and United Kingdom was formed to drive Iraq out of Kuwait. The coalition forces launched a massive air campaign against Iraq, followed by a ground offensive. After several weeks of fighting, Iraq was forced to withdraw from Kuwait.

Conclusion

The Gulf War ended with the establishment of a ceasefire agreement on February 28, 1991. The ceasefire agreement called for Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait, and for the coalition forces to withdraw from Iraqi territory. The war resulted in the liberation of Kuwait and the establishment of a new international order in the region.
