Kharkiv (Ukraine): Naveen Shekharappa Gyanagoudar, a 21-year old boy was killed by the Russian Shelling yesterday. He was a medical student from Karnataka studying in Ukraine. He was standing for food in Ukraine’s Kharkiv when he was killed. Naveen was from Karnataka and he was a student of the final semester in the Kharkiv National Medical University.

He spoke to his father just in the morning over the phone about the deteriorating scenario of Ukraine. The Student Coordinator of the University, Pooja Praharaj, said that Naveen went outside only for food. He lived outside the campus, in a flat behind a prominent Government building. He had been standing for almost one or two hours and suddenly an airstrike blew up the Government building and in this incident, Naveen too lost his life. His death was later informed by a Ukrainian woman to the student coordinator of his University.
