Air Ambulance Arrives for Bangladesh's Ex-PM Khaleda Zia
Khaleda Zia is a former Prime Minister of Bangladesh who is very sick.
She needs to go to London for better medical treatment.
A special plane, called an air ambulance, is coming to take her.
The plane is from a company called FAI Aviation Group and was arranged by the Qatar government.
It will land in Dhaka on Tuesday morning and leave for London the same evening.
Khaleda was supposed to leave earlier, but she was too sick to travel.
The plane has doctors and special equipment to take care of her during the flight.
An air ambulance will arrive in Dhaka on Tuesday to transport former Bangladesh Prime Minister Khaleda Zia to London for medical treatment.
The aircraft, arranged by the Qatar government and provided by FAI Aviation Group, is scheduled to land at 8 am and depart at 9 pm on Tuesday.
Khaleda Zia, 80, has been receiving treatment for multiple ailments at Evercare Hospital in Dhaka for nearly two weeks.
Previous plans for her departure were postponed due to technical issues with the initial air ambulance and her health condition.
The replacement air ambulance is equipped with full critical-care equipment and staffed by medical professionals trained in in-flight intensive care.
