On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke to the United Nations Security Council, stating that newly discovered massacres after the departure of Russian soldiers near Kyiv might be worse than those in Bucha, where even more than 300 civilians were tortured to death, according to him. As worldwide indignation grew over the fatalities, Western officials promised a broad probe into potential war offenses and increased consequences against Moscow.
President Biden urged for a war crimes prosecution on Monday in response to reports of rape and the slaughter of people in Bucha and other Russian-occupied towns, adding that Russian President Vladimir Putin should be held responsible.

]]>According to the administration, at least 15-20 Indians remain in conflict-torn Ukraine and are awaiting evacuation. It stated that “Operation Ganga” rescue missions “are not over.” “We are assisting these individuals in whatever way we can. There are still some individuals in Kherson. Operation Ganga is still ongoing, and we are assisting anybody who wishes to be evacuated.” Arindam Bagchi, the spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry, stated in a press conference. Kherson is located in the south of Ukraine.
When hostilities in Ukraine rose, the Indian embassy in Kyiv launched a registration campaign for Indians in January, and by the end of the month, 20,000 Indians – largely students – had signed up. More than half the students were enrolled at colleges in eastern Ukraine, which borders Russia, according to Foreign Minister S Jaishankar. So far, this region has been the focus of the war.
Till now, 22,500 evacuated from Ukraine, among which some were in isolated pockets and some don’t want to return.

Today, Ukraine agreed to Russia’s request to establish humanitarian corridors.
Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that he is not dispatching conscripts or reservists to participate, and that the conflict in Ukraine is being led by “professional” forces with “defined aims.”

The National Medical Commission (NMC) stated in a bulletin that due to the “agony and stress” these students encounter, their forms may be handled by state health councils if the applicants have passed the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination prior to trying to apply for internship closure in India.
Thousands of Indian med students in Ukraine would profit from the decision, which came after Russia began a massive invasion of the ex-Soviet republic, forcing them to quit their education and relocate to India.
