Six students from Aurangabad and one student from Buldhana district returned from Ukraine on Thursday. The students recalled their 7 day struggle as they approached the border.

Walked for 25 km

Bhumika said she had to go to the bunker on the 9th floor after the air siren sounded. This had to be done 5 to 6 times a day.
Atmosphere of war is terrible
Nisha Indure said the atmosphere of the war is very frightening. Drones go through the air. We had collapsed mentally and emotionally. Ajinkya Jadhav said, the struggle to return home started from February 27. I arrived safely in the city today and my family was happy.
