Media reports are saying there will be two charter planes bringing over 400 Taiwanese back from Wuhan on Tuesday night. Officials have not confirmed the report. But Premier Su Tseng-chang said the Central Epidemic Command Center would report to the nation when they have safely arrived.

Premier Su said on Tuesday that officials have held to three principles when discussing with Chinese officials how to bring back Taiwanese from Wuhan. These include giving priority to the weak, to disease prevention and taking on what Taiwan can handle.

Reports are saying that Taiwan’s China Airlines and China’s Far Eastern Airlines will have charter flights of 235 passengers each that will fly into Taoyuan airport on Tuesday.
