German air force to fly out some Beirut embassy staff, dependants

Germany sent an air force plane to strife-torn Lebanon on Monday to fly out some Beirut embassy staff and their dependants as well as German citizens with medical conditions, the government said.

“An Air Force A321 aircraft flew to Beirut today to support the departure of the colleagues and their families,” said a joint statement by the foreign and defence ministries. “German nationals who are particularly at risk due to medical circumstances are also being taken on the Bundeswehr aircraft.”
