Another flight with 260 Pakistanis from Tripoli arrives

Another special flight arrived from Tripoli at Lahore with 260 Pakistanis on board. This is the seventh special flight since August 13, operated by the Government of Pakistan for evacuating thousands of stranded Pakistanis in Libya, says a press release issued here on Wednesday.
This brings the total number of Pakistanis airlifted back to the motherland, thus far, to 1987. Around 1,500 destitute Pakistanis, presently housed in relief camps set up by the Pakistan Embassy in Tripoli, are still awaiting evacuation. Additional flights are planned during the coming weeks to ensure that all stranded Pakistanis being supported in emergency accommodation are brought back to their homes at the earliest, as per Prime Minister's directive.-PR
