PM Modi to hold high level meeting on Russia-Ukraine crisis today.
The Indian embassy in Ukraine, meanwhile, on Sunday said intense fighting was underway in Kharkiv, Sum and Kyiv and urged Indians in these cities and wherever curfew has been applied to not venture towards railway stations until such curbs are lifted and considerable civilian movement is renewed.
The embassy’s advisory came amid reports that the Ukrainian forces have secured full control of Kharkiv following street fighting with Russian troops in the country’s second-biggest city. Earlier, it had urged stranded citizens to wait for further development if they feel the situation is not conducive for travel and if they are unable to leave their current location due to any reason.
