Russia-Ukraine crisis: Pakistani students being evacuated to Poland, says embassy
Arrangements are in place to accommodate the evacuees once they reach Poland
Evacuation process for Pakistani nationals stranded in Ukraine is well underway with a gradual stream trickling out of the country, government sources have said.
The Pakistan Embassy in Ukraine said on Twitter that approximately 70 Pakistanis have been evacuated from Kharkhiv city with more to follow. The embassy said it has received more than 20 students at Lviv Facilitation Desk from different cities across Ukraine. Arrangements are being made to send the students to Poland via transportation arranged by the Embassy.
Pakistan’s Ambassador to Poland Malik Muhammad Farooq told Khaleej Times, “I’m already in touch with over 200 students in Ukraine. As you know, the Polish government has announced that evacuees entering from Ukraine are allowed to stay in Poland for up to 15 days, after which they can either return to Ukraine, or travel to their home countries. The feedback I got from most Pakistanis was that they wish to go back to their country.”
The Ambassador has assured arrangements are in place to accommodate Pakistani evacuees once they reach Poland, where they will be taken care of until their return.
