A military Airbus A330 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) has headed to Tel Aviv to pick up Dutch people. These are travelers who are stranded in Israel.
The aircraft took off from Eindhoven Air Base on October 11 around 10:30 am.
The Dutch themselves have indicated that they want to use the flight. This concerns a repatriation and not an evacuation. In that case, the Dutch government helps people get away from a dangerous place to a safe point in the region.
The Airbus A330 is part of an international aircraft pool.
