About 81 other workers were brought home via charter flights departing from Istanbul, Turkey.


DOLAB reported that 209 Vietnamese workers have left Libya for neighbours like Turkey and Egypt, waiting for charter flights to Vietnam. They are scheduled to fly to Vietnam on August 13.


These Vietnamese were working for three Korean contractors carrying out projects in Libya.
