Remark

Photographer

U-903 The ugandan soldiers told us that the aircrafts were destroyed in July 1976 by the Israelis during the famous operation Thunderbolt. But I've also heard that the ugandan rebelforces, LRA (Lord's Resistance Army), have destroyed aircrafts. The Migs are left to rot within the restricted military part of Entebbe airport.

A visitor from United States posted Mon October 19, 2009: These were destroyed during the Israeli operation in 1976. The LRA rebels only operate in the north of the country, too far away the part of the country where EBB airport is to have been responsible for damaging these old fighters.
