Anil Madusanka
Anil Madusanka is a 37-year-old Sri Lankan who found himself on the front lines of the conflict in Ukraine after being misled by a recruitment offer that promised work as a driver in Russia. Instead of a stable job, he spent seven weeks fighting before sustaining severe injuries from shrapnel. After escaping from a hospital, he sought refuge at the Sri Lankan embassy in Moscow, which facilitated his return home. Madusanka’s story highlights the risks faced by foreign nationals who are deceived into joining military conflicts under false pretenses.
