New Delhi: For 31-year-old Harjot Singh, an attempt to seek safety away from the war-hit Kyiv in Ukraine brought him under heavy fire and he thanks his lucky stars that he survived despite receiving four bullets, including one in the chest.
Recounting the horrid moments of February 27, Singh, a Delhi resident who is currently undergoing treatment at a hospital in Kyiv, said, "We were in a cab to Lviv. We were stopped at a barricade and suddenly it was raining bullets. I thought this is the end. I am alive by God's grace."
His anxious family members here heaved a sigh of relief after he regained consciousness a few days later and informed them that he miraculously escaped the firings.
The incident took place on February 27 when Singh, along with his two friends, boarded a cab for the western Ukrainian city of Lviv in a bid to escape Kyiv.
"I don't know what happened to the people I was with. If they made it or not, I have no clue. I thought I will not make it," Singh told PTI over phone. Singh is enrolled in a language course at International European University in Kyiv.
