Second Moroccan Victim of Ethiopian Airlines Crash to be Repatriated

The crash that occurred on March 10 by the plane of the Ethiopian company also claimed Moroccan victims. If Chiheb Benamed, one of the first victims to be repatriated, now rests on his native land, the remains of El Hassan Sayouty, also killed in the crash, will be repatriated on Wednesday evening from Addis Ababa to Casablanca.

The members of the Moroccan Embassy and the Ambassador of Morocco in Ethiopia and Djibouti, Nezha Alaoui M’Hammdi, attended the closing of the coffin and the sealing. Representatives of the Ethiopian health authorities and security services also attended this ceremony.

After the recitation of the Fatiha, the coffin was handed over to the competent services for repatriation.

Note that the plane of the Ethiopian company, which was to operate the link between Addis Ababa and Nairobi in Kenya, crashed six minutes after takeoff, killing 157 victims.
