At least three Filipinos, through their employers and the Saudi Arabian government, were evacuated from conflict-torn Sudan, the Department of Foreign Affairs said Monday.
“We thank the Saudi Arabia government, and we are also appealing to them that for our future repatriation, maybe we can board their military vessel... and it looks like they are open to the idea,” de Vega added.De Vega had said that the evacuation of Filipinos can only be done via land travel since airports in Khartoum are not functioning due to the warring military forces of Sudan.
“I will be frank. Those who want to go home and are still stuck there are not happy, and there’s even one who was abandoned by the employer na para siyang aso o pusa ,” de Vega said.
