The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade informs that a total of 150 passengers were evacuated on today's flight from Dubai, of which 125 citizens of North Macedonia, 7 citizens of Serbia, 11 citizens of Kosovo, 2 citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina, 2 citizens of Albania, 1 citizen of Germany, 1 citizen of Armenia and 1 citizen of Montenegro, Anadolu reports.

Currently, there are about 200 North Macedonian citizens remaining in the United Arab Emirates who initially requested evacuation, but according to their statements, they are currently not willing to do so.

The plane from Dubai is expected to land at Skopje International Airport around 20:00 PM local time.

Regarding the evacuation from Riyadh, which is scheduled for tomorrow, a total of 153 passengers have so far registered to fly from Riyadh - King Khaled International Airport. Of these, 9 are from Saudi Arabia, 15 from Bahrain, 96 from Qatar and 33 from Kuwait.

"Given that North Macedonia has not concluded an air traffic agreement with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the plane is scheduled to land at Pristina airport, after which the transportation of passengers to Skopje will be organized," the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade of North Macedonia said in a statement.

We emphasize that the entire organization of the flights, including all relevant costs, is covered by the Government of North Macedonia through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade.
