AMMAN, Oct 7 (KUNA) -- A Kuwaiti citizen and 130 nationals from various countries who took part in the foiled maritime mission to relieve Gaza, the Sumud Flotilla, have arrived in Jordan via King Hussein bridge, the Jordanian Foreign Ministry declared on Tuesday.
The ministry spokesperson Fuad Al-Majali said in a press statement that the released activists included a Jordanian female and citizens from Kuwait, Bahrain, Tunisia, Algeria, Oman, Libya, Pakistan, Turkiye, Argentina, South Africa, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States of America and Uruguay.
He added that the ministry, in collaboration with other authorities, facilitated their transport to Jordan and gave them some assistance.
Al-Majali also indicated that his department coordinated with the embassies of the freed activists' countries to facilitate their return home.
Kuwait had declared on October four that two citizens who were engaged in the humanitarian sea mission were freed. (end)
