Egyptian planes will start as of Friday airlifting Egyptian nationals fleeing the conflict in Libya from Tunisian Djerba airport, Civil Aviation Minister Hossam Kamel said.
A flight will carry 180 Egyptians back home today, he said.
This move comes after 21 Egyptians were beheaded by Daesh in Libya and the airstrikes carried out by Egypt against a number of Daesh targets in the North African country.
