June 1976 CE

...Entebbe, Uganda.

Here, the hijackers, two of whom are members of Red Army faction (a.k.a. the Baader-Meinhof gang) free those of the two hundred and fifty-eight passengers who do not appear to be Israeli and hold hostage the remaining one hundred and three for the release of fifty-three fellow terrorists imprisoned in Israel, Kenya, West Germany, and elsewhere.

The Palestinians are PFLP members who have by this act broken a PLO agreement to end terrorism outside Israeli-held territory.
