Some information here:

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/report/1985/MML.htm

The Egyptian Air Force opened Operation BADR at 1405 on 6 October 1973
with a massive coordinated air strike with 150 to 250 aircraft. These air
strikes were directed at the airfields of Bir Gifgafa, Bir el Thamada, Ras
Nasrani, Ophira, El Arish, Akaba, and Ras Sedr. Also, the forward command
post at Tasa and the command post at Bir Gifgafa were struck along with 8
to 10 HAWK battery and command positions plus radar sites defending these
targets.

That at least implicates that most radars and SAMs were at or near those places.
