Israel declassifies Entebbe documents
Israel has for the first time released secret documents revealing details of Operation Entebbe carried out by its special forces in Uganda in 1976, to rescue over a hundred hostages held at Entebbe Airport. The documents showed that the government was debating between negotiating with the hijackers or executing a military operation, and that it followed a dual policy combining support for negotiations with readiness to fight if negotiations failed. The operation resulted in the liberation of most of the hostages, with three killed, including the unit's commander Yoni Netanyahu, the brother of the current Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
