Over 3,500 Vietnamese have been evacuated from Ukraine since Russia launched attacks nearly two weeks earlier.

Most of the Vietnamese people wishing to move out of three big cities of Ukraine, namely Kyiv, Kharkov, and Odessa, have been evacuated in the face of the complicated situation there, according to Vietnamese Ambassador to the country Nguyễn Hồng Thạch.

553 Vietnamese citizens who have fled Ukraine to Romania and Poland amid escalating military conflict there will be brought home on two special flights next week.

 The Government has approved the policy to arrange flights to bring Vietnamese people from Ukraine home.
