The Indian government has said its Embassy in Ukraine would resume operation from Kyiv by May 17, 2022.
In a communique today, the foreign ministry said, “The Indian Embassy in Ukraine, which was temporarily operating out of Warsaw (Poland), Would be resuming its operation from Kyiv w.e.f 17 May 2022″.
The Indian embassy in Ukraine was shut after Russia invaded the former Soviet republic.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that the embassy operations in the Ukraine Capital had shut down in early March after Russian shelling intensified days after the February 24 invasion.
On March 13, the embassy relocated to Warsaw after most Indian nationals were evacuated from Ukraine.
Several Western political leaders including UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau have recently visited Irpin and other residential areas around the Ukrainian capital, where Russian forces have been accused of killing hundreds of civilians.
Ukraine has said it will launch its first war crimes trial, bringing a 21-year-old Russian service member to the stand who allegedly shot down an unarmed 62-year-old civilian to stop him from serving as a witness to a carjacking.
