Three Indians who are stuck in war - torn Libya, including two who went back after being evacuated in April, are being brought to Benghazi city and will be flown to India, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said on Thursday.
She said this in response to a tweet by Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal who stated: "Requesting @SushmaSwaraj Ji to look into the matter of three men from Punjab stuck in Libya.
They are seeking help to return to India. "
"We have brought them in military vehicles 650 Kms away to Benghazi.
