Original Note:
This did not occur. The USS Liberty was inadvertently attacked by Israel during the 1967 Six-Day War. Independent investigations by both Israel and the US found that Israeli armed forces mistook the ship for an Egyptian vessel. Israel paid restitution to the victims. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident
