Vizag it was learned that the Vizag girl along with other students stranded in Ukraine left the bunker on 1 March 2022 with a plan to take a train to Lviv and reach Hungary border by road. Sreeja who was contacted by team said, ” We took a train from Kharkiv and reached Lviv after a 17 hours journey. We were told that going to the Poland border was a better option and hence changed our plan. All of us took city cabs from Lviv to Poland border as the Poland Embassy promised our safety if we could cross the border,”
