In a Tweet posted earlier this week, the Pakistan Consulate in Dubai said it had received and processed the registration of their citizens who would be repatriated.
It said it was waiting for its government’s approval to start operating special flights.
Reports indicated that the flights from Dubai will start on April 17.
