KATHMANDU: The Nepali Embassy in Tel Aviv has confirmed that the bodies of four Nepali students, who tragically lost their lives in an attack by Hamas in Israel, will be flown back to Nepal.

The embassy has organized their repatriation, with the bodies of Narayan Prasad Neupane, Lokendra Singh Dhami, Dipeshraj Bista, and Ashish Chaudhary, scheduled to arrive in Kathmandu on Sunday morning (October 22).

The embassy stated that the necessary arrangements have been made for the transportation of the bodies via a Flydubai flight.

The flight, with the remains on board, is set to depart from Tel Aviv to Dubai on Saturday, with subsequent arrangements for the final leg of the journey to Kathmandu via another Flydubai flight.
