Russian army allegedly arrested seven Indian citizens and forced them to fight in the war against Ukraine. A video of the seven Indians was shared on social media, in which one of them can be heard appealing to the Indian government to return them safely.
The family of one of the Indians, from Gurdaspur district in Punjab, appealed to the government to bring their son back safely from Russia. In recent months, Ukraine has stepped up attacks in the Black Sea and Crimea, which Russia seized and annexed in 2014.
