Since Ukraine has shut its airspace following a conflict with Russia, India is rescuing its nationals by moving them to Ukraine’s neighbouring countries of Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, and Romania and then flying them out from there.
The Ministry of External Affairs has stated that India will fly at least 46 evacuation flights under Operation Ganga from the neighbouring countries of Ukraine. These flights are scheduled until March 8.
As many as 29 flights are planned from Bucharest, six from Rzeszow, 10 flights from Budapest and one from Kocise, said MEA. Under this operation, Indigo, Air India, Air India Express, and Spice Jet planes will be used to evacuate the Indian nationals.
