Wednesday, 15th Dhu al-Hijjah 1446 AH, corresponding to 21st Jawza 1404 SH 

The first flight carrying Afghan pilgrims from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia landed today at Kabul International Airport. This flight included 346 pilgrims from Kabul and Laghman provinces. They were warmly welcomed with bouquets of flowers by the Deputy Ministers of the Ministry of MOHIA, Honorable Sheikh Al-Hadith Mawlawi Zar Mohammad Haqqani, Sheikh Mawlawi Azizur Rahman Mansoor, along with several senior officials of the Islamic Emirate, security authorities, representatives of Kabul International Airport, Ariana and Kam Air airlines, and some ministry officials. 

This year, the Ministry of MOHIA, in cooperation with relevant institutions, successfully facilitated the travel of 30,000 pilgrims from across the country through 97 flights operated by Ariana Afghan Airlines and Kam Air, without any issues. Today, praise be to Allah, we witness the return of the first flight.

It is worth mentioning that the return process of the pilgrims began today in Kabul and will continue in the coming days in other flight zones of the country.
