Karousos: 2000 repatriations every fortnight
April 15, 2020
Repatriations are picking up during Holy Week, with the aim of reaching a target of about 2000 Cypriots and legal residents every two weeks — on a par with the quarantine facilities available, Transport Minister Yiannis Karousos told CNA on Tuesday.
He said that authorities have drawn up a plan of action, beginning with the UK and Greece.
Most of those belonging to the vulnerable groups have already returned, and in the next 15 and 20 days, repatriations will be according to the preferred two week period given by those who qualify under the criteria.
