The Ugandan government has concluded the initial stage of its program to voluntarily repatriate citizens escaping anti-immigrant violence in South Africa. A third Uganda Airlines charter flight, UR701, arrived at Entebbe International Airport early Sunday, carrying 255 Ugandans. This flight, landing at 3:50 a.m. East African Time, brings the total number of returned nationals to 560. The repatriation effort was initiated in response to unrest targeting foreign nationals in South Africa. The government organized the charter flights to provide a safe passage home for Ugandans wishing to leave. This marks the completion of the first phase, with potential for further repatriation efforts depending on the situation in South Africa. Authorities are providing support to the returnees as they reintegrate into Ugandan society.
