Nine students from Karnataka who are stranded in Kharkiv and taken refuge in an underground shelter for the last three days are getting more concerned about their safety as their evacuation is getting delayed even as they are running out of supplies and spending fearful moments in a bunker amidst a giant gas cylinder and trash.
The students, including from Mysuru and Kodagu, are pleading for help as they are not getting food and potable water with conditions turning from bad to worse. They are eating chocolates with no food available as groceries are exhausted in shops.
“How long can we eat chocolate? We have no food and clean water to drink. Whatever eatables we have are going to finish by tomorrow. We request the Indian government to help us move out of this place as it is getting unbearable for us to remain in the bunker as our surroundings getting bombed repeatedly,” the students said, in a video shared with their families in Karnataka.
