The Embassy of India in Kyiv has warned Indians in Ukraine against moving to any of the border posts without prior coordination with Government of India officials.

Advisory for Indians stranded in Ukraine

As per the latest advisory issued by the Embassy of India in Kyiv, the Indians in Ukraine seeking safe evacuation are advised not to move to any of the border posts without prior coordination with Government of India officials at the border posts. 

The advisory reads, "The situation at various border checkpoints is sensitive and the Embassy is working continuously with our Embassies in our neighbouring countries for coordinated evacuation for our citizens. Embassy is finding it increasingly difficult to help the crossing of those Indian nationals who reach border checkpoints without prior information."

The advisory has also stated that staying in western cities of Ukraine with access of water, food, accommodation and basic amenities is relatively safer and advisable as compared to reaching border checkpoints without being fully abreast of the situation.

"All those currently in the Eastern sector are requested to continue to remain in their current places of residence until further instructions, maintain calm and stay indoors or in shelters as much as possible, with whatever food, water and amenities available and remain patient. Avoid unnecessary movement," added the advisory.
