Indian soldier in Russian army begs for release...

Thirteen of the fifteen non-Russians in the Indian national's group, according to the Russian army's deployment in the war against Ukraine, have died. The national has placed his hope for his release and safe return to his home country on prime minister Narendra Modi's meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on July 8. The remarks were made by 47-year-old Kalimpong, West Bengal, resident Urgen Tamang in a recently uploaded video. On July 11, he forwarded the video—which HT is unable to independently confirm—to Rabi Pradhan, the head of the Kalimpong Municipality's board of administrators. In the final week of march, he uploaded his first video from the conflict zone, claiming that he had been taken there against his will following ten to twelve days of weapon training.

Since march of this year, I have been enmeshed in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Numerous people have lost their lives. With me were fifteen non-Russians. Thirteen of them have passed away. In the most recent video, Tamang stated, "Only myself and another person from sri lanka are alive. Tamang, a father of two young kids and a former defense personnel, spent eighteen years in the indian army before traveling to russia in March. He was apparently duped by his agents, who had promised him a job as a security personnel in Russia, and was then deployed to fight in Ukraine.

"I have communicated with the Kalimpong Municipality's chairman of the board of administrators." He used to ask how I was doing. He told me that Modi traveled to russia and spoke with the President of Russia in order to expedite the release of all Indians. I'm overjoyed. In the video, he stated, "I believe I could make it home safely." He continued, "I would make an appeal to the indian government to ensure the release of all indians as soon as possible." Pradhan added, "I speak with Tamang almost every day," in an interview with HT. He has spent the past few days in the vicinity of Crimea. He was taken, along with a few other non-Russians, to Crimea for relaxation; they are currently housed in a bunker, but they will soon be sent back to the front lines of battle. For Tamang's safe return to the hilly village in north Bengal, he and his family in Himali gaon, Kalimpong, now hope that Putin and Modi would meet. The relatives claimed that Tamang had been defrauded of ₹6 lakh by the agents who had sent him to russia with the promise of a lucrative position as a security guard. They stated they tricked him and made him fight for russia in its conflict with Ukraine.
