coronavirus pandemic
  • Due to the coronavirus pandemic, hundreds of
    Pakistanis are stranded in different countries.
    They are unable to reach home because of the
    suspension of flights. So, in a bid to alleviate
    the worries of stranded citizens, the officials
    in Pakistan have finally decided to resume the
    special flights to bring back the citizens. The
    flights will be resumed from 11th of May, and
    would continue to operate until all the
    passengers are escorted to Pakistan.

Details By The Special Assistant To Prime
Minister
  • On May 11, Special Assistant to PM on National
    Security Division Moeed Yusuf briefed media on
    the possible steps that the government would
    take. In the briefing, he asked the stuck
    overseas Pakistanis to carefully follow the
    guidelines being mentioned in the official
    COVID-19 Website.
  • Talking about the number, the Special Assistant
    said that so far, 20,000 Pakistan had been
    successfully returned. He also clarified that
    there were still about 100,000 Pakistanis that
    needed to be repatriated. The government is
    planning to bring back around 10,000 people in
    the upcoming week through PIA Flights. Most of
    the Pakistani citizens are stuck in the Gulf
    States, so the government will focus primarily on
    these countries.

Flights From UK, USA And Africa
  • In addition, since the government of USA has
    allowed Pakistan to operate the special flights,
    the Pakistani citizens in United Stated would
    also be brought back. Moeed Yousaf added that
    Pakistan would also operate flights to Britain,
    UK, and some African countries. At the end of his
    briefing, he emphasized the need for everyone to
    take strict precautionary measures. He said that
    all the repatriated citizens would be first sent
    to the quarantine centers where they would be
    properly checked. Consequently, the citizens
    would be allowed to return home after spending 14
    days in the centers.

    on the point of origin.
