Vidhi Dama, who was stuck in Ukraine’s capital Kyiv, told mid-day that Ukrainians were not allowing Indian students to take the trains out of the city, where bombing and firing are on. Indian officials later helped them move west, as Russian troops began their attack on Kyiv on Tuesday.
 
The Indian government had issued an advisory, asking all Indian students to leave Kyiv after the Russian troops reached near the city on Tuesday morning. Dama, a resident of Thane who went to Ukraine to study medicine, said she and her friends experienced horrible behaviour at the railway station, and shared videos and photos with mid-day.
