A Ukrainian airplane has evacuated Ukrainian, Croatian, Dutch, Belarus, and Afghan citizens from Kabul, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba wrote on Twitter on Monday, without specifying the number of passengers on board the aircraft.
“Ukrainian aircraft stationed in Afghanistan took citizens of Ukraine, the Netherlands, Croatia, Belarus, Afghanistan out of Kabul. They’re safe now,” Kuleba wrote.
There were approximately 30 Croatian citizens in Afghanistan, mostly employees of foreign organisations. The Ukrainian minister did not release details about the number of passengers on the Ukrainian plane, so it remains unclear how many Croatian nationals were evacuated that way.
Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic said on Sunday there were 20 to 30 Croatian nationals in Afghanistan and that their employers had organised their return.
The Ukrainian foreign minister promised further assistance.
“We don’t abandon our people & (we) help others. In case of further requests, will do everything possible to help Ukrainians & foreigners,” Kuleba said in his post.
The Taliban declared the end of the war and took over Afghanistan’s capital on Sunday after the US-backed government had collapsed. Foreign countries, led by the United States, started evacuating their citizens from Kabul.
