The governments of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Kenya are trying to get their citizens out of Russia's war against Ukraine, according to Euromaidan Press, an outlet covering the war in Ukraine.
Kazakhstan is preparing a list for Moscow, which suggests it intends to present the Russian side with a specific record of its citizens.
Kyrgyzstan has said that some of its migrants in Russia are forced into contracts. The source excerpt does not specify what kind of contracts, but in context they relate to taking part in the war.
Kenya has appealed to Kyiv. Russia, for its part, told Kenya that unit commanders rule on requests to quit, case by case. That implies there is no single, clear procedure for release.
The available source text does not say how many people are affected or what these efforts have achieved so far.
