Massive Prisoner Swap Between Russia and Ukraine

Russia and Ukraine plan to exchange 500 prisoners of war each, following a recent swap of 200 POWs per side. This is part of ongoing prisoner exchanges during the four-year conflict between the two nations, as announced by Kremlin aide Vladimir Medinsky and the Russian Defence Ministry.

Russia and Ukraine are set to exchange 500 prisoners of war each on Thursday and Friday, according to Kremlin aide Vladimir Medinsky. This diplomatic move follows a pattern of prisoner swaps over the last four-year conflict.

Previously, both nations had traded 200 prisoners each, as confirmed by the Russian Defence Ministry. These prisoner exchanges have been a consistent part of their ongoing conflict resolution efforts.

The prisoner swap marks a significant step in the strained relations between Moscow and Kyiv as they navigate the complexities of war and diplomacy.
