New Delhi: French ambassador Emmanuel Lenain Friday thanked India for evacuating a staffer of the French embassy and her family from strife-torn Sudanese capital city of Khartoum.
India has been evacuating its citizens from Sudan under ‘Operation Kaveri’ which was launched Monday.
Lenain said the evacuation of the embassy staffer and her family is a reflection of Indo-French solidarity.
“My heartfelt thanks to India for evacuating a local staff member of the French Embassy in #Khartoum and her family in an @IAF_MCC flight last night. In #Sudan as elsewhere, Indo-French solidarity never falters. #OperationKaveri,” he tweeted.
