Indian students evacuated from Ukraine shared their experiences and said it was a “miracle” to survive the war.
Indian students, who were stuck in beleaguered Sumy in northeastern Ukraine, said it was a “miracle” to survive the war and they were now “relieved” to have finally reached Delhi on Friday morning.
Dheeraj Kumar, a sixth year medical student in Sumy State University, said he was pleased to see his parents at the Indira Gandhi International Airport here.
“We have gone through unprecedented challenges in Sumy. It was a terrible experience to survive the war for 13 days. To me, it looks like a miracle to have returned alive to my country,” Kumar told PTI as he touched the feet of his parents, who had arrived from Himachal Pradesh’s Chamba to receive their son.
