LUCKNOW: It was a huge sigh of relief for the 700 students from India trapped in the war-ravaged Sumy city in east Ukraine just 50 km from the Russian border as they were evacuated on Tuesday after a dreadful ordeal lasting for 13 days during which they, at times, even had lost hope of surviving.
The families of Indian students stuck in Sumy, which has been witnessing intense fighting, told TOI that their wards were safe and would be boarding flights to India soon.
