SPACEX has joined forces with US and Bahamian partners to help evacuate more than 1,400 residents from the Southeast Bahamas as Hurricane Melissa bears down on the region.
Flights yesterday carried evacuees from Inagua, Mayaguana, Acklins, Crooked Island, Long Cay, and Ragged Island to New Providence.
US Chargé d’Affaires Kimberly Furnish said the United States stands with The Bahamas “every day” but especially in times of crisis. She credited SpaceX, the Love & Life Foundation, and other US partners for their swift cooperation.
