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.
The Hebrew yahrtzeit date of Lieutenant Colonel
Yoni Netanyahu z"l is the 6th day of Tammuz.
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,
I created a page with 14 unique videos and 10 cool USA maps.

I updated the "Shabbat Shalom" images page.
There are 950 images from around the net.
