Middle East: Armed Conflict
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to support British nationals stranded due to the Middle East conflict with medical needs.
Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer
The safety of British nationals remains the Government's top priority. I refer the Hon Member to the statement I gave to the House on 5 March, and the answers provided to questions raised in response. Assisted departures have now taken place from both Oman and Dubai. We will provide further updates on a regular basis, including details of our ongoing evacuation flights, as well as our efforts to secure an end to Iran's attacks on countries in the region, and the full resumption of normal commercial flights.
