At least 126 Indians have joined the Russian army to fight in the war in Ukraine, according to the Indian government. At least 12 have been killed and 16 are still missing. Many of the affected Indians, most from poor families, were reportedly lured with promises of lucrative jobs and roles as helpers, cooks and housekeepers in Russia. However, upon arrival, they were sent directly to war zones.
