The repatriation operation of Moroccans stranded abroad due to the pandemic of the novel coronavirus continued on Monday from France, with three flights of Royal Air Maroc, two from Paris and another from Lyon, each with 150 passengers on board, including children, babies and elderly people stranded in France in the context of the state of emergency decreed following the spread of Covid-19.

At Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, two flights to Agadir have been scheduled to repatriate stranded nationals. A third flight, carrying the same number of passengers, has also been planned from Lyon, according to airport sources.

A total of 450 people will be repatriated today from France to Agadir.

This operation has benefited in particular people with health problems or chronic diseases, as well as the elderly, tourists in precarious situations and minor children. It was carried out in full compliance with the precautionary measures and the health protocol in force.

These are the first repatriation flights from France.

The Moroccan government, in accordance with the High guidelines of HM King Mohammed VI, has assumed all costs related to the implementation of the repatriation program of Moroccans stranded abroad.
