An Air France flight, departing from France to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to evacuate French citizens, was forced to turn back due to rocket attacks in the region, French Transport Minister Philippe Tabarot has reported on X.
“The Air France plane, chartered by the government to bring our compatriots from the UAE, was forced to turn back this evening due to rocket attacks in the area,” the minister wrote.
He emphasised that the situation highlights “the difficulties of evacuation.” “We fully understand the legitimate expectations of our citizens there, but their return can only take place under proper safety conditions,” Tabarot added.
