Entebbe is a city in Uganda situated on the shores of Lake Victoria, the former British colonial capital. It is internationally known for Operation Entebbe (3–4 July 1976), during which Israeli special forces rescued 102 Jewish and Israeli hostages held at the airport by pro-Palestinian hijackers following the hijacking of Air France flight 139. The operation remains one of the most emblematic counter-terrorism raids in Israel's history.
