Premier c-130 belge de la journée de retour à Islamabad. Le vol en provenance de Kaboul transporte environs 80 personnes dont des citoyens Belges et Néerlandais. Merci à tous les services impliqués pour leurs efforts ainsi qu'aux partenaires NL pour l'excellente coordination.

Supreme coordination NATO partners ... now a second flight has deported with 170 passengers. Great relief for Dutch MFA which had a shaky start and failed on many fronts. Parliament forced caretaker cabinet of Mark Rutte to increase effort and broaden the base of Afghans employed by the Dutch. In earliest flight, all Dutch diplomats and the deputy Ambassador Cees Roels were evacuated. In two flights today 207 Afghan embassy employees and relatives succeeded to get on board!
