Khaleda Zia's London Evacuation Delayed
Khaleda Zia, the former Prime Minister of Bangladesh, is very sick.
She has problems with many of her organs and is in a very bad condition.
Doctors say she needs special treatment that she can only get in London.
So, she will be flown there in a special plane from Qatar.
Her family and some doctors will go with her.
The government is also helping with this.
Everyone is worried about her health, and the party she leads is preparing for any outcome.
The plane was supposed to come on Thursday, but it had some problems and will come on Saturday instead.
If everything is okay, she will fly to London on Sunday.
Khaleda Zia, 80, is in critical condition with multiple organ complications.
Her evacuation to London via Qatar Royal Air Ambulance has been delayed to Sunday due to technical issues.
A medical team from Bangladesh, Johns Hopkins, London Clinic, and Chinese doctors are overseeing her care.
14 people, including doctors, family, and security, will accompany her to London.
The BNP is on high alert and preparing for any outcome due to her deteriorating health.
