As more than 15,000 Indian students stuck in war-torn Kyiv struggle to find safety, the Indian embassy has suggested that they find the nearest bomb shelter.

In the third advisory to the stranded Indians, the embassy said on Thursday night, “For those students who are stranded without a place to stay in Kyiv, Mission is in touch with the establishment to put them up. We are aware that certain places are hearing air sirens/bomb warnings.”

“In case you are faced with such a situation, Google Maps has a list of nearby bomb shelters, many of which are located in underground metros.”
