India is actively seeking the return of its citizens caught in the conflict in Ukraine, with efforts underway to repatriate about 20 individuals who found themselves on the Russian side of the front line. These efforts come amid reports of Indian nationals being lured under false pretenses to join the conflict. Tragically, a 30-year-old Indian national, who was allegedly deceived into joining the Russian Army, has died during the ongoing war. Another case involves Harsh Kumar, a 19-year-old from Karnal, Haryana, who was reportedly forced to join the war against Ukraine by the Russian military. The Indian embassy in Moscow has confirmed the death of Afsan, a citizen who was recruited by the Russian army through 'Baba Vlogs', highlighting the perilous situation for Indians duped into participating in the conflict.
