The correct response is: **An Egyptian leader seized control of the Suez Canal.**
The Suez War, also known as the Second Arab-Israeli War or the Tripartite Aggression, occurred in 1956 when Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal, which had previously been operated by British and French interests. This act led to military intervention by the United Kingdom, France, and Israel.
