Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Nigerian, Ghanaian and Somali students are among hundreds of foreign nationals stuck in Ukraine’s north-eastern city of Sumy which has been pummelled by Russian forces for days.<\/p>\n

There is no food in the market, cashpoints are not working and the students are drinking melted snow after running out of water.<\/p>\n

An Indian student, Vipin Yadav, who is part of the group trapped in the city, estimates about 1,300 foreign students are still trapped there – including people from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Turkey.<\/p>\n

In a phone interview, Mr Yadav told the BBC’s Danny Aeberhard that there was nothing to eat for the last four to five days.<\/p>\n

Nigerian and Ghanaian governments have been repatriating their nationals who are fleeing the conflict in Ukraine. The first groups arrived back home last week.<\/p>\n

More than 1,000 Ghanaian students were living in Ukraine until Russia invaded the country. The West African nation has so far made two repatriation missions.<\/p>\n

Nigeria is expected to evacuate 5,000 citizens who crossed from Ukraine to the neighbouring countries of Romania, Poland and Hungary.<\/p>\n
