EgyptAir would send two more flights to Tunisia's Sfax–Thyna International Airport to evacuate a number of Egyptians who fled the violence in Libya, said the minister of civil aviation.
Hossam Kamal added that the first flight had already left early Wednesday, noting that more that 15,000 Egyptians were brought back from Tunisia on 63 flights.
The Aviation ministry has airlifted thousands of Egyptians who fled into Tunisia from Libya after the wave of violence that swept the North African country.
