(Passengers wait at the platform inside Lviv railway station: AP) New Delhi: Indian diaspora was advised to move away from conflict zones to the Western region subject to security situation and the extant regulations, Indian Embassy said on Sunday (February 27, 2022).
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that he is "ready for talks with Russia, but not in Belarus." Russian forces have entered Kharkiv, Ukraine`s second-largest city, local officials said. There were now reports of fighting in the streets of Kharkiv. Russian troops had broken into the city in the past hour.
The third evacuation flight carrying 240 Indians from Budapest has landed in the national capital on Sunday morning. Earlier, the second evacuation flight from the Romanian capital Bucharest carrying 250 Indian nationals who were stranded in Ukraine landed at the Delhi airport in the early hours of Sunday.
Two large explosions were heard in Ukraine`s capital Kyiv today morning. Two large explosions lit up the night sky to the southwest of Kyiv with one detonation that appeared to be approximately 20 kilometres, or about 12 miles, from the city centre.
On the other hand, the United Nations said it has confirmed at least 240 civilian casualties, including at least 64 people killed, in the fighting in Ukraine that erupted since Russia's invasion on Thursday - though it believed the "real figures are considerably higher" because many reports of casualties remain to be confirmed.
Meanwhile, Russia closed its airspace to planes from Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Slovenia, a move that comes as Moscow's ties with the West plunge to new lows over its invasion of Ukraine.

Key points from Foreign Secretary Harsh V Shringla's presser:
The Government of India has launched 'multi-pronged' Operation Ganga to evacuate our citizens stranded in Ukraine. This evacuation process will be at government cost: Foreign Secretary Harsh V Shringla
So far under op Ganga, thousand of our citizens have been flown out of Romani and Hungary and another thousand have been evacuated from Ukraine through land routes. Flights have been organised for them.
Border crossing to Hungary & Romania is functioning, however, the exit point to Poland is clogged due to lakhs of foreign nationals trying to escape from that point. Those who are near the borders of Hungary & Romania are guided towards their border points in phases.
Our Embassy in Kyiv and our Ministry had issued a number of advisories prior to the situation developing. 4000 of our nationals had left before the conflict, pursuant to these advisories. We estimated that about 15,000 citizens were left in Ukraine.
Since the airspace in Ukraine was closed, we identified land evacuation options from Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, and Romania. Specific border crossing points were identified and the MEA had deployed teams to assist in the evacuation process. (Source: ANI)
