We lost our Maama, and I still don't have the words. But your calls, your visits, your prayers, your just-showing-up, they carried us. Thank you for not letting us walk this alone. May God bless you back, many times over.
The Chief of Defence Forces, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba presided over the unveiling of a statue at the Old Terminal in commemoration of the 50th Anniversary since Isreali commander, Jonathan Netanyahu, lost his life in a daring rescue mission for air transport hostages at Entebbe International Airport.
The rescue mission, which was code named “Operation Yonatan” took place on 4th July 1976. The bravery exhibited by the Commander of the operation ensured that his legacy continues to resonate through time, hence the commemorative event
"We are celebrating the fact that more than 100 hostages who were held here in that old tower building at gunpoint were rescued," Uganda Civil Aviation Authority (UCAA) Deputy Director General, Ms Olive Birungi Lumonya stated.
Uganda Government dignitaries and the Isreal delegation attended the event.
In 2016, Entebbe International Airport was privileged to host the 40th Anniversary of the rescue mission and Israeli Prime Minister, H.E. Benjamin Netanyahu attended the historic event and participated in the official commemoration ceremony.

Working in government has reminded me how little I like meetings.
10-15 minutes max is enough time to land it. Otherwise what are we talking about?
When I don’t have to go around looking for resources to support our work, I’ll concentrate on creating and strategy.
We all have a stake in ensuring that the parasites that benefit from maligning Uganda do not win.
Zero cases of Ebola in #Uganda.
No one in Uganda has tested positive for #Ebola
I was surprised to see an SFC command soldier helping a boda boda guy get back on the road after his building materials fell off. In a world where power often creates distance, that moment showed humility and service. Respect!
