More than 100 people on Canadian chartered flight leaving Middle East tonight: Anand
- On Tuesday evening, Canada arranged a chartered flight that transported around 95 Canadians from Jordan to Athens as part of efforts to assist their return from the Middle East.
- The evacuations follow last week's outbreak of war between Israel and Iran amid a fragile ceasefire and escalating missile attacks earlier Tuesday.
- Over the last seven days, Canada has assisted more than 600 Canadians, including permanent residents and their families, in evacuating from areas affected by the conflict involving Israel, Iran, and the West Bank.
- Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand stated that the flight, which had 265 seats, carried 95 passengers, and her department intends to deploy additional buses to assist Canadians in traveling from Israel and the West Bank into Jordan to consolidate individuals for evacuation.
- Canada continues to provide support in the region despite facing challenges such as the absence of official diplomatic relations with Iran since 2012 and complications in processing refugees from Gaza amid escalating regional conflicts.
