JAKARTA - A total of 12 Indians died while serving in the Russian armed forces. Indians are indeed recruited by Russian troops to fight on the battlefield against Ukraine.
India's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said 18 other people were still on duty in the military, and 16 of them were categorized as "lost" Russia.
India said last year it had uncovered a large network of human trafficking that captivated youth to Russia with a promise of work just to force them to fight the Russian war in Ukraine.
