Russia-Ukraine Crisis; Russia Extends Military Drills With Belarus, Russia Action Leaves U.S Worried

Hundreds of artillery shells exploded along the contact line between Ukrainian soldiers and Russia-backed separatists, and thousands of people evacuated eastern Ukraine, further increasing fears Sunday that the volatile region could spark a Russian invasion. Western leaders warned that Russia was poised to attack its neighbor, which is surrounded on three sides by about 150,000 Russian soldiers, warplanes, and equipment. Russia held nuclear drills Saturday and conducted conventional exercises in neighboring Belarus, and has ongoing naval drills off the coast in the Black Sea. Given the continued high levels of tensions and uncertainties in Ukraine, the Indian Embassy in Kyiv on Sunday issued an advisory to all Indian nationals, asking them to leave Ukraine temporarily. "In view of continued high levels of tensions and uncertainties with respect to the situation in Ukraine, all Indian nationals whose stay is not deemed essential and all Indian students, are advised to leave Ukraine temporarily," the advisory said. #UkraineRussiaStandoff #VladimirPutin #RussiaUkraineCrisis #NATO #UkraineRussiaConflict #RussiaUkraineInvasion #UkraineRussiaWar #UkraineRussiaTensions #IndiaToday Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
