India has made arrangements to fly out 58 nurses from Libya and has asked all its nationals to consider returning home since the condition in the country has “deteriorated.”
On Friday, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin said all arrangements have been made to help 58 Indian nurses to cross the border to Tunis.
Addressing the media, he said the nurses would travel by road to Tunis and then be flown back to India.
Special flight if needed
“We have arranged for, if it is required, a special flight to come to Djerba which is two hours from the border of Libya. But the flight will be used if there is enough planeload. However, if smaller numbers continue, we will then have to take them to Tunis and then fly them out.” Arrangements have been made to fly the nurses to their home States once they land in India.
