(IsraelNN.com) Uganda has dedicated a memorial to Yoni Netanyahu, the IDF officer who died while leading an elite unit of officers to rescue Israelis kidnapped at the Entebbe airport. The slain commander's brother, Finance Minister Binyamin (Bibi) Netanyahu, spoke at the dedication ceremony.
A plaque on the wall of the old terminal, where the hostages were taken before being rescued, stated, "The government of Israel decided to call the operation 'Operation Yonatan" in memory of the brave commander who lost his life. The rescue operation at Entebbe will always serve as an example in the world-wide war against terror."
