However, following several rounds of Russia-Ukraine talks, a failed Sumy evacuation attempt on Monday, and a call from PM Modi to Russia and Ukraine’s leaders, Russia on Tuesday finally declared a cease-fire to conduct a “humanitarian operation” starting at 12:30 pm India time. The Russian embassy in India released a list of “humanitarian corridors” that it is ready to provide, and all 694 Indians stranded in Sumy were able to leave Ukraine, reported the centre.

About 18,000 Indians have been brought back from Ukraine through the special flights since February 22. The war in Ukraine began on February 24, when Russia launched a full-scale invasion of its ex-Soviet neighbour, following which several Ukrainian cities have been under near-constant attack.
