“Our understanding, at the present moment, as per present information, is that about 85 people have returned from Russia. Unfortunately, we have also had the return of some mortal remains of people who lost their lives during the conflict,” Misri said.”Our understanding is that nearly 20 people still remain (in the Russian Army) and we are pressing our interlocutors for an early discharge of all remaining Indians in the armed forces there,” he said.Nine Indians have died while serving in the Russian Army, according to official data.In August, the Russian embassy said Moscow and New Delhi are working in close coordination for an early “identification and discharge” of the Indian nationals who voluntarily joined contractual work in the military service and now want to return home.Since April, the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation has stopped recruiting citizens of several foreign countries, including India, into the military service, it said.
