Australia carried out its first repatriation flight from India after temporarily banning all travel from the COVID-ravaged country last month, the government said, with 80 passengers arriving in Darwin on Saturday from New Delhi, APA reports citing Reuters.

Passengers had to show two negative COVID-19 tests before boarding the government-backed Qantas (QAN.AX) flight and were taken upon arrival to a converted mining camp in Howard Springs in the Northern Territory for a two-week quarantine.
