📝 英文原文:
The commemoration of Israel’s most famous military operation should have been a moment to celebrate for Matan Vilnai. Instead, the deputy commander of the Entebbe raid – in which commandos rescued 102 hostages – boycotted the ceremony, along with many of the soldiers who took part in the daring mission.“What exactly is there to celebrate – an operation from 50 years ago? I haven’t celebrated since October 7,” Vilnai, a retired general from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) told CNN. “We have thousands of soldiers fighting right now, thousands of reservists serving – and they’re celebrating?”On July 4, 1976, Israeli commandos flew nearly 2,500 miles across largely hostile airspace, landing in darkness at the airport in Entebbe, Uganda. In less than an hour, they freed 102 hostages held by Palestinian and German hijackers who were demanding the release of dozens of convicted terrorists. The plane had been hijacked en route from Tel Aviv to Paris and diverted to Entebbe.Three hostages were killed during the operation, as was its 30-year-old commander, Yonatan (Yoni) Netanyahu, who became a national icon. Operation Thunderbolt – known in Hebrew as the Entebbe raid – was subsequently renamed in Netanyahu’s honor as “Operation Yonatan.”Entebbe became one of the defining moments in Israel’s national story, a symbol of a country’s promise to go anywhere, and take extraordinary risks, to protect its citizens and bring them home.It also marks the beginning of another story: that of Netanyahu’s younger brother, Benjamin, who entered public life in the shadow of Yoni’s death and would become Israel’s longest serving prime minister.Israel's then-army chief of staff, Lt.
