Historie
June 27, 1976. An Air France jetliner carrying 248 passengers vanishes from radar over the Mediterranean, hijacked by armed terrorists and diverted to a remote African airstrip. Among the captives: families, businesspeople, and Holocaust survivors—ordinary people caught in an extraordinary crisis.
In Uganda's Entebbe Airport, protected by dictator Idi Amin's military, the hijackers issue their demands: release imprisoned terrorists or execute the hostages. Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin faces an impossible choice—negotiate and validate terrorism, or attempt a rescue mission deemed suicidal by every expert.
What follows is the most daring military operation in modern history. A strike force must fly 2,500 miles into hostile territory, assault a fortified airport, free the captives, and escape—all in under 100 minutes. One mistake means catastrophe. One miscalculation means massacre.
Drawing from declassified intelligence files, survivor testimonies, and military debriefings, this minute-by-minute account reveals the untold story of courage under fire. From the desperate hostages organizing resistance, to the commandos rehearsing in secret, to the political leaders gambling everything on an audacious plan—this is the definitive chronicle of how democracy struck back against terror.
Based on true events that changed counterterrorism forever.
