The Suez Crisis was an event that the whole world had its eyes on. Many pictures of the war still continue to make rounds on the internet. But there is one that many of us have not seen but has only started to trend recently.

The photo dates back to 1956 and one can see a young King Salman in it. Beside him in the photo is his brother Prince Turki.

The photo was supposedly taken when the Saudi army was preparing to defend Egypt during the war.

It was originally shared by Saudi writer and academic Dr. Khalid Batarfi.

Dr. Khalid Batarfi also shared another photo from the war that shows King Salman alongside King Fahd and King Abdullah.
