CAIRO – 24 August 2021: A military aircraft has brought home members of the Egyptian community back from Afghanistan on Monday.

The Egyptian community there mainly consisted of a delegation from Al-Azhar and the diplomatic mission.

Sheikh Shawki Abu Zaid, head of the Azhar delegation, thanked President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi for the efforts to bring the community home and for the well secured reception, as well as the medical preparations.

He also thanked the Egyptian intelligence for the great efforts exerted during the rapid deterioration of security in Afghanistan and its ability to keep the delegation safe in the now Taliban-controlled country. He added that they were evacuated in such a professional and meticulous fashion.

One of the returnees told the Egyptian T.V. that they found a great deal of obstacles in Kabul airport, and they learned that a person without a strong country behind his back would be lost.

He added that the Armed Forces had been constantly communicating with the Egyptian diplomats in Afghanistan to ensure their safe return.
