Lolwah Rashid Mohammed Al-Khater, Assistant Foreign Minister & Spokesperson of MoFA, has overseen the plan from the “operation room” in the compound. “This is a process handled from A to Z; we make sure it is as safe as possible,” H.E. told Al Jazeera. “Currently this compound is almost at capacity; it hosts around 500-plus people. We are preparing another compound as a contingency plan, and it’s expected to house even more.”
