The first list of 640 prisoners of war in the categories wounded, seriously ill and youth has been handed over to Ukraine

The first list of 640 prisoners of war in the categories “wounded“, “seriously ill“ and “youth“ has been handed over to Ukraine in order to begin the exchange - Medinsky. But the Ukrainian side unexpectedly postponed “for an indefinite period both the acceptance of bodies and the exchange of prisoners of war.” Russia calls on Ukraine to take the bodies of 6,000 soldiers and officers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces so that their families can humanely bury them, Medinsky said. The Russian presidential aid clarified that the first batch of frozen bodies of Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers, 1,212 in number, had already arrived in refrigerated trucks to the exchange area. Representatives of international media can come to the site of the planned prisoner exchange with Ukraine and see for themselves that Russia is fully prepared for work, Medinsky said. “We are there. We are fully prepared for work... Russia always keeps its word.“ Source: Lord Of War
