The Indian Embassy in Ukraine on Monday issued an advisory warning Indian national on their movement within Ukraine.
The Embassy has asked Indian nationals in Ukraine to avoid all non-essential travel within and to Ukraine.
“In view of the current escalation of hostilities in Ukraine, Indian nationals are advised to avoid all non-essential travel to and within Ukraine. They must strictly follow the safety and security guidelines issued by the Ukrainian Government and local authorities. “
Earlier, India raised concern over the escalation of conflict in Ukraine after the Crimea bridge attack on Saturday.
“India is deeply concerned at the escalation of conflict in Ukraine, including targeting of infrastructure and deaths of civilian,” read the Ministry of External Affairs release. In what appears to be the heaviest wave of missile and rocket attacks since the opening week of the war, Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities were rocked by deadly Russian strikes on Monday.
Officials said they targeted critical energy infrastructure and several regions of Ukraine are now suffering power outages.
