Six more students from Assam have arrived in New Delhi after being evacuated from war-ravaged Ukraine on Sunday.

According to a press release from the Assam government, the names of six students are Bhaswati Goswami (Guwahati), Mrigakshi Kalita (Nalbari), Saddam Hussain (Nagaon), Mumshad Hujaef Uddin Ahmed (Nagaon), Nayan Jyoti Das (Nagaon) and Sneha Deka (Guwahati).

The students arrived at the Assam Bhawan in New Delhi and were received by officials, the release said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been regularly chairing high-level meetings over the Ukraine crisis.

Earlier on Saturday, the Ministry of External Affairs said that over 13,300 people have returned to India so far under Operation Ganga from crisis-ridden Ukraine. The Ministry also informed that almost all Indians have left Kharkiv city in Ukraine and the main focus of the government is to evacuate citizens from the Sumy area as it is challenging amid ongoing violence and lack of transportation.

The government has also deployed 'special envoys' to five neighbouring countries bordering Ukraine to coordinate and oversee the evacuation process of Indian nationals.

Russian forces launched military operations in Ukraine on February 24, three days after Moscow recognized Ukraine's breakaway regions - Donetsk and Luhansk - as independent entities.
