ISLAMABAD: Foreign Office (FO) spokesperson said Saturday the government has decided to repatriate Pakistani survivors of Dakhla maritime incident from Morocco.

The Foreign Ministry’s Crisis Management Unit (CMU) has been actively engaged in monitoring the situation, providing necessary support to the affected individuals, and maintaining active communication with their families.

National identity verification remained a critical component of this process which was completed expeditiously in coordination with the Interior Ministry and the relevant departments.

Separately, the Foreign Ministry is also facilitating the return of 11 Pakistani nationals from Mauritania. These individuals have voluntarily chosen to return home and will be part of a separate repatriation process.

The welfare of Pakistani nationals abroad remains an important priority of the government and it will continue to work to extend all possible facilitation in this regard.

Further updates will be shared as the repatriation efforts moves forward, FO statement highlighted.
