Good job all involved. I wonder how the release was secured.2.57 pm: Indian nurses cross border posts, reach Kurdistan
The Indian nurses have now reached the Kurdistan region in Iraq which is considered to be safe.
CNN-IBN reports that the nurses have crossed the border post into the area. India is also sending special aircraft to bring them back.

Government sources have told CNN-IBN that the nurses will be at Erbil airport for today and will be flown to Kochi by a special aircraft early Saturday morning.
They will reach Kochi at 7 am on Saturday, the sources told CNN-IBN. The nurses will be provided proper travel documents before they can leave that country.
A special aircraft will take off from Delhi at 5 pm and will reach Erbil late tonight. It will again take off early tomorrow morning and arrive in India at 7 am.
