The last group of Moroccans stranded in Japan left Tokyo’s Narita international airport on Tuesday evening to be repatriated to the Kingdom, after spending three months in different Japanese cities.

The group is made up of executives who have visited Japan for short training sessions under the supervision of the Japan International Cooperation Agency and other specialized agencies, as well as several citizens who have visited Japan before the suspension of air links and the closure of borders in March.

The Moroccan embassy in Japan has provided the necessary support to this group in terms of accommodation and necessary health care in addition to transportation to the airport.

A first group of Moroccan citizens who suffer from diseases had already left Japan previously.

Some 30 flights were scheduled on 21-27 June for the repatriation of 4,644 Moroccans stranded in 17 countries amid the coronavirus travel-restrictions.
