40 Indians stranded in Bahrain amid Israel-Hamas war
A group of tourists from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh had traveled to Bahrain on a tourist visa on February 24 and were scheduled to return after four days, but were later stranded because the ongoing conflict in West Asia led to airport closures and flight cancelations.
With airports closed and flights canceled, they can't get home.
One of them, Salmon Raj from Hyderabad, has reached out to the Prime Minister and state leaders, hoping for quick action.
Some are finding it tough to afford food or basic needs
Many in the group—especially older folks—are running out of medicines for diabetes and blood pressure since prescriptions aren't available.
Money is tight too; some are finding it tough to afford food or basic needs.
Right now, they're sharing crowded spaces and relying on local Telugu residents for meals as they wait for help from Indian authorities.
