New Delhi/UNI: The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Thursday said 15-20 more Indians, who are stranded in Ukraine, want to leave the war-torn country.

Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said "Till about three days ago, there were about 50 Indians who were there.

"Our assessment is that there are 15-20 people who want to leave that country."

He said the other Indians do not want to leave right now.

He said India is providing all help to the Indians who want to leave the war-hit country.

He also said that Operation Ganga, the name of the evacuation mission launched by New Delhi, has not ended.

"Many people have said that Operation Ganga has come to an end. It is not so. Those who want to be evacuated, we are helping them through our embassy operating from Warsaw (in Poland)," the MEA spokesperson added.
