This is the best summary I could come up with:

The government of Nepal has banned its citizens from travelling to Russia or Ukraine for employment after 10 young men were killed and dozens more reported missing while fighting, predominately in the Russian military.

“Work permits for Russia and Ukraine have been temporarily halted until further arrangements are made to minimise potential risks and losses for Nepali nationals entering these war-ravaged countries,” Kabiraj Upreti, a director at the department of foreign employment, told the state broadcaster RSS.

The extraordinary losses have prompted demands from Kathmandu that Nepali fighters not be deployed on either side of the conflict, and that the remains of those killed be repatriated and compensation paid to their families.

But increasingly, people-smugglers have brought young Nepali men into Russia’s war in Ukraine, where many have been offered fast-track citizenship or salaries far larger than they could earn at home.

A captured soldier, Bibek Khatri, said in a video shared online that he had enlisted in the Russian army because his family needed money and he had wanted to return home “a successful man”.

The Nepali government’s decision came just one day after Vladimir Putin signed a decree that would speed up a path to citizenship for the hundreds of foreigners who have enlisted in the Russian army, providing an additional incentive to fight, as both Russia and Ukraine have sought to address personnel shortages.
