President Isaac Herzog delivered remarks at a ceremony marking 50 years since Operation Entebbe (Operation Yonatan), held at the President’s Residence, stating that “Operation Yonatan does not belong to one person or group.” According to him, “It is above all disputes. One of the most remarkable operations in Israel’s history, and it was also a moral declaration. On that night, the State of Israel established a principle that continues to resonate in our generation – the state has borders, but there is no limit to responsibility. To the covenant of mutual responsibility between us. When a Jew or Israeli is in trouble, even if the path seems impossible – the State of Israel will come.”
