ANKARA (AA) - The total number of Turkish citizens evacuated from Ukraine reached 9,653, Turkiye's foreign minister said on Thursday.
In a Twitter post, Mevlut Cavusoglu said that 406 more citizens have been evacuated on Thursday.
Cavusoglu said 100 of the citizens are coming to Turkiye from Kyiv via train, while the remaining 306 arrived by bus from the cities of Odessa, Lviv, Zhytomyr and Khmelnytskyi.
Russia's war on Ukraine, which began on Feb. 24, has been met with international outrage, with the European Union, US and UK, among others, implementing tough financial sanctions on Moscow.
More than a million people have fled Ukraine to neighboring countries, according to the UN Refugee Agency.
