47th Anniversary of Mivtsa Yonatan, Flora Photos and Happy Birthday America

Posted on June 28, 2023 by

Hi Everyone!

On June 27 1976, an Air France flight from Tel-Aviv to Paris via Athens
was hijacked and forced to land in Entebbe, Uganda.
The Jewish passengers were separated and held hostage in demand
to release many terrorists held in Israeli prisons.
After much debate, the Israeli government sent an elite commando unit
to raid the airfield and release the hostages. The commando unit,
aircraft crews and the rescued hostages landed in Israel on July 4, 1976.
Yonatan Netanyahu, the commander of the first aircraft´s Sayeret Matkal
rescue unit,
was shot and killed while helping hostages return to the aircraft.

“Operation Entebbe” was later named “Operation Yonatan” in honor
of Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Netanyahu z”l.

I created a page with images, newspaper headlines, videos
and articles about the historic Israeli rescue.

May the memory of Yoni Netanyahu be for a blessing,

In honor of the United States of America Independence Day,
