Here are the latest developments from the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict

As foreign citizens continue to be evacuated from Ukraine, Russia has intensified its attack on key Ukranian cities.

On March 13, 2022, more than 30 Russian cruise missiles targeted the sprawling facility at Yavoriv, killing 35 people in an attack on a facility that served as a crucial hub for cooperation between Ukraine and the NATO countries supporting its defence.

According to Ukranian officials, Russians shot and killed a U.S. journalist, and wounded another on Sunday in Irpin.

With the winding down of ‘Operation Ganga’, the government’s evacuation mission to fly about 20,000 students and other Indian citizens out of four countries neighbouring Ukraine, the Indian government decided to temporarily relocate the Indian embassy in Ukraine to Poland.
