Another 170 Citizens to be Repatriated from Dubai Today

Another 170 Cypriot citizens, including two infants, are being repatriated today from Dubai, as part of Cyprus's efforts to safely return its citizens from the Middle East region. The flight is expected to land at Larnaca Airport at 8:05 PM. So far, a total of 805 Cypriots have been repatriated, mainly from the United Arab Emirates. Cyprus was among the first countries to charter special flights to repatriate its citizens, covering the full cost. A crisis management center has also been established, operating 24 hours a day. The authorities assure that the repatriation effort will continue until all Cypriots in dangerous areas have returned. The government has mobilized all available resources to assist its citizens who wish to return to Cyprus.
