The Zimbabwean government is seeking to charter a jumbo jet to fly the corpses of COVID victims from the United Kingdom, an official has said.

The official who is from Foreign Minister SB Moyo’s office, said the government wants to assist diasporans struggling under the pandemic, and asks for people to submit their full names and contact data.

Those wishing to fly their loved ones to their resting place ‘ekhaya’ back home, may submit their names here, or directly to the Zim embassy in London. [a full statement was underway at the time of writing]
