Hargeisa (SD) – The diverted Fly Dubai flight to Hargeisa is said to have been carrying passengers who had coronavirus, according to sources.

Fly Dubai was flown back to Dubai, and it was later confirmed that people on board the plane had Coronavirus infection.

The passengers who tested positive for Coronavirus were a Somali family, reliable sources have confirmed.

The infected Somali family reportedly had left the United States and went to British prior to their attempt to go to Hargeisa.

The cancelation of the Fly Dubai flight to Hargeisa was highly discussed by media and politician regarding who is in charged on Somali airspace.

However, Somaliland seems to have dodged a bullet in terms of the spread of the virus in the country.
