Meanwhile, Indians living in Israel are worried about their safety. Many Indians have shared videos of Iranian missiles and say that the conditions here are not good. According to the Indian Embassy, there are about 18,000 Indian citizens in Israel. Most of these Israelis work as elderly care workers, diamond traders, I.T. There are professionals and students.
Nilabja Roychoudhury, who is studying medicine at Bar-Ilan University in Israel’s capital Tel Aviv from Kolkata, told The Times of India that the situation is worsening day by day.
