ABU DHABI. June 30. KAZINFORM - From the Syrian city of Mayadin, province of Deir al-Zor, has been evacuated one more citizen of Kazakhstan Elena Potapova with her four children, reports Kazakhstan Embassy in Jordan.

According to the Kazakh diplomats closely monitoring the situation with compatriots in Syria, in the country there are about forty citizens of Kazakhstan. It is possible that the number of our fellow citizens can be more as there are people who did not register themselves with the consulate and their stay in the territory of the Arab country has not been previously known.

Questions of evacuating citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan from the hotspots and their return to their homeland is constantly monitored by the diplomatic missions of Kazakhstan under the leadership of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
