A violent incident in Ufa, Russia, has left four Indian students injured in a knife attack at a medical university, as reported by multiple sources including Pakistan Today and The Frontier Post. The attack, which occurred on February 7, 2026, involved a 15-year-old assailant who targeted students in a university dormitory. The Indian Embassy in Moscow confirmed the incident on social media, stating: 'An unfortunate incident of attack has occurred in Ufa. Several persons, including four Indian students, have been injured.' According to The Frontier Post, the Russian Investigative Committee has opened a criminal case into alleged negligence by officials who were aware of the attacker's behavioral issues but failed to act. This incident comes amid heightened geopolitical tensions, as India has recently aligned with the US against Russian energy interests, a move that analysts suggest may have contributed to a hostile environment for Indian nationals in Russia.
