India has issued a warning to its citizens against joining the Russian armed forces, describing the practice as a "dangerous path," amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.
According to figures cited in the advisory, 227 Indian nationals have been recruited into Russia's military since 2022, when Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Indian officials have previously raised concerns about nationals being misled into combat roles abroad, often through job offers that do not clearly disclose military service. The latest warning reiterates the government's position that citizens should avoid any involvement with foreign armed conflicts.
The issue of Indian nationals serving in the Russian military has drawn diplomatic attention in recent years, with New Delhi previously raising individual cases with Moscow and seeking the return of recruits.
