First flight to repatriate Russians from South Africa due December 3

Russian Aviaton » Monday November 29, 2021 19:18 MSK

The first repatriation flight from South Africa for Russian tourists will be operated on December 3, the Russian Consulate General in Cape Town wrote on the Telegram channel opened specifically to deal with repatriation issues amid the spread of a new coronavirus variant in Africa. This reported by TASS.

"According to early information, the repatriation flight with the support of Ethiopian Airlines will be carried out on December 3 on the Cape Town-Addis Ababa-Moscow route," the diplomatic mission said.

The flight will be a commercial one, it added. The ticket price will depend on the number of passengers. An exodus of tourists from South Africa began on November 25, when news broke of the Omicron variant.

The Russian Consulate General is asking Russian tourists wishing to leave South Africa to make requests for departure by Monday at 18:00 local time (19:00 Moscow time).

  Light combat Yak-130M
  The presentation of the Ya-130M aircraft took place at the international military-technical forum "Army-2024", which was held from August 12 to 14, 2024 at the Patriot Convention and Exhibition Center. It should be noted right away that this is not just the modernization of the Yak-130 aircraft, but the transformation of a combat training aircraft into a full-fledged light combat aircraft. In the information field, this event was marked by a number of brief reports from federal news agencies. But the project, like the Yak-130 aircraft with its unique flight characteristics, deserves a more detailed review, which we decided to do.
