External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Monday said that 23 countries have requested India to evacuate their citizens from strife-hit Yemen.
Swaraj shared the information on micro-blogging site twitter.
"Twenty three countries have requested India to evacuate their citizens from Yemen," she posted.
On Sunday, the minister assured that all Indian nationals would be evacuated from the Middle East country.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) had earlier confirmed that 488 Indians had been evacuated from Sana'a, while a further 182 were rescued from coastal town Ash Shihr.
This followed the rescue of 439 Indians by the Indian Navy's guided-missile destroyer INS Mumbai from Yemen 's port city Aden on Saturday.
