It was the end of an ordeal for three students on their return to Nellore district on Sunday, even as 22 other students from the district studying in Ukraine continued to have agonising experience, particularly when it had come to light that one Indian student had been killed in Kharkiv shelling when he came out to buy some essential commodities.
While Chaitanya, Likith and Bhanumathi were brought to their native places from the Chennai airport by the district officials, 22 others were still trapped in the war-torn country.
Narrating his nightmarish experience, Chaitanya said he had spent several days without food and water before he moved to the Ukraine-Romania border.
