Indian Youths Stuck in Russia Send SOS to Home

The New Indian Express Kollam

September 12, 2025

At least nine Indian youths, mostly from Punjab, Haryana, and Jammu, have sent desperate SOS videos from the front-line of the Russia-Ukraine war, saying they were tricked into military service and are now being forced to fight for the Russian Army.

The videos show the young men—wearing Russian military fatigues—pleading for urgent rescue, claiming they were misled by agents who promised jobs or student visas.

In response, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) issued a fresh advisory, warning Indian citizens to avoid such dubious offers. Calling the situation "fraught with danger," MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said the government has taken up the matter strongly with Russian authorities in both Delhi and Moscow.
