Living conditions have become challenging, with students often feeling ostracized and encountering difficulties in daily life. Their plea for transfer to other universities in different countries remains unfulfilled while they live in constant fear. Their situation highlights the multifaceted challenges they face amid a complex geopolitical landscape and a nation gripped by conflict.

The challenges for Indian students pursuing medical degrees in war-torn Ukraine show no signs of abating, as they grapple with increasing hostility from sections of the local population, who perceive India as supporting Russia in the ongoing conflict. The situation has escalated since Ukraine initiated its recent offensive operations in June.

    FYI: OP is a tankie who just spams any news he can find to discourage people from supporting Ukraine in the war.

      What does that have to do with the content of the article?

        Some things need more context than a single article. In this case, the context is several articles being posted by a person with an agenda. This knowledge may change some people’s perception of the article.

            I counted at least 9 specifically about Ukraine in just the last 3 days, not counting cross-posts.

                … And improve your reading comprehension. I don’t feel like repeating myself.

                  Maybe stop attacking persons just because you lack any arguments. You don’t seem very patient - maybe take a break?

        And this was claimed where, exactly…?

        Although the article is mostly about how the indian students (of which only 3.5k are currently in Ukraine, per the article) are afraid of bombing and complaining that they can’t be transferred to another country, with about a paragraph about (admittedly not good) animosity from Ukrainians.

          Animosity likely springing from the fact that India supports Russia.

        The argument of deliberately misunderstanding the context and meaning of a comment is indefensible…?
        Or do you mean to suggest that we should completely ignore when someone is cherry-picking news to fit an agenda and spread anti-Ukraine sentiment?

        Because I’d have no problem with this news article being posted, if this same person didn’t post several other very specific articles today.
