Commemorations
In August 2012, Uganda and Israel commemorated the raid at a somber ceremony at the base of a tower at the Old Entebbe Airport, where Yonatan Netanyahu was killed. Uganda and Israel renewed their commitment in the fight against terrorism and to work towards humanity. In addition, wreaths were laid, a moment of silence was held, speeches were given, and a poem was recited. The flags of Uganda and Israel waved side by side, demonstrating the two country's strong bilateral relations, next to a huge plaque with a history of the raid. The ceremony was attended by Ugandan State minister of animal industry Bright Rwamirama and the Israeli deputy foreign affairs minister Daniel Ayalon, who laid wreaths at the site.
