Kyiv has received the bodies of 1,000 soldiers from Moscow
Ukraine received the remains of 1,000 Ukrainian servicemen killed in the war that began with Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022 during the latest exchange with Russia, Ukrainian officials said today.
More than 7,000 dead, most unidentified, have been handed over to Ukraine in recent months during multiple exchanges that were the result of talks between the two sides in Istanbul earlier this year.
In a statement, Ukraine’s Coordinating Council for Prisoners of War said officials would work to identify the dead.
