So far, around 13,300 people have returned to India from war-ravaged Ukraine by 63 flights operating under ‘Operation Ganga’, Minister of External Affairs (MEA) official spokesperson Arindam Bagchi stated.
"A total of 15 flights have landed in the last 24 hours with around 2,900 onboard. Approximately 13,300 people returned to India so far by 63 flights under 'Operation Ganga', and 13 flights are scheduled for the next 24 hours," he said.
The MEA also informed that almost all Indians have left Kharkiv city of Ukraine and the main focus of the government is to evacuate citizens from Sumy as it is challenging amid ongoing violence and lack of transportation.
The government has also deployed "special envoys" to four neighbouring countries bordering Ukraine to coordinate and oversee the evacuation process of the Indian nationals.
