TASHKENT, Dec. 8 (Xinhua) -- Uzbekistan has taken back 25 women and 73 children from the refugee camps in Syria by a special flight organized on the instructions of the President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, the government said Tuesday.
The returnees will be provided by the government with medical, psychological, material and moral assistance, the government said.
