Nineteen Ukrainians are returning home from Russian captivity through a prisoner exchange with Russian proxies taking place on April 16, the Office of President Volodymyr Zelensky said in a statement.
The first part of the exchange was held near the Mayorsk checkpoint, over 670 kilometres east of Kyiv. The second part is set to take place at an unspecified location in Luhansk Oblast, most likely near the town of Stanytsya Luhanska.
