Avión fletado para evacuar coreanos de los EAU previsto para el domingo en medio de tensiones en Oriente Medio

El Ministerio de Exteriores de Corea del Sur anunció un vuelo fletado de Etihad Airways para evacuar a nacionales de los EAU el domingo, ya que las tensiones entre Irán y EE.UU. están interrumpiendo los vuelos en Oriente Medio. Con alrededor de 3.000 coreanos varados, la embajada aceptará solicitudes a partir del sábado temprano, priorizando a pacientes gravemente enfermos, personas con discapacidades graves, mujeres embarazadas, ancianos e infantes.
