KUALA LUMPUR: The Government has directed a RMAF C-130 aircraft to fly home 190 Malaysians, who have appealed to be evacuated from strife-torn Libya.
National Security Council secretary Datuk Mohamed Thajudeen Abdul Wahab said on Wednesday that the plane was now in Slovakia, and would fly to Rome and then to Tripoli.
“The aircraft is waiting for permission to land from the Tripoli International Airport authorities,” he told Bernama.
Meanwhile, a RMAF spokesman said another aircraft was on standby at the Subang Air Force base, awaiting instructions to help in the evacuation of Malaysians in Libya.
