Sassy Reuven relives Operation Entebbe – 40 years on

Marking the 40th anniversary of the Entebbe Raid, IDF Commander Sassy Reuven, who was second off the plane at the raid, delivered an inspirational talk to South African youth last week at the World of Yamaha, where Chabad hosted its “Young Drivers” event.

He shared inside stories and details of the raid and told his audience about the many injuries he refused to show the doctor in case they would forbid him from taking part! Commander Reuven’s essential message was that the most important and only thing he could think about all along was that nothing could stop him from going on this mission (at Entebbe) to save Jewish lives.

It was a privilege for the audience to hear a first-hand account from such an uncharacteristically humble man and they were captivated by his encounters.

This was the last Young Drivers event for the year in Johannesburg.
