New Delhi: Fresh videos circulating on social media have revealed the plight of more Indian nationals trapped in Russia’s war against Ukraine, with the men claiming they were deceived with job offers and later forced into combat. The men, mostly from Punjab and Haryana, allege that they were taken to Russian military camps after arriving in the country on student visas in July this year.

In one of the videos, a young man identifying himself as Sumit Sharma pleads for help, saying: “We are nine boys here. We are being treated very badly. They don’t give us food or water. They lured us with job offers and brought us here to fight for Russia. We didn’t know they would recruit us in the army. Please help us as much as you can.”
