– The situation outside the airport is chaotic and dangerous and a major challenge for safe departure. Everyone is therefore advised to stay calm and wait for more information about the time of possible departure, says communications manager Trude Måseide at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to NTB.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is now working around the clock to assist Norwegian citizens who want to leave Afghanistan by plane from Kabul, according to the head of communications.
After the ministry issued an invitation to register on reseregistrering.no, the progress has been great, she says.
– Today we have contacted everyone who has registered, and asked Norwegian citizens or persons residing in Norway for an extended registration. We work with transport out of Afghanistan and have personnel at the airport in Kabul who together with the Armed Forces assist with this.
– Everyone who is registered will receive information about opportunities for departure. If anyone has still not registered and their family, we ask them to do this as soon as possible, says Måseide.
