Were exchanged – Russia hands over bodies of soldiers to Ukraine

Date:

Ukraine has received the remains of 77 slain soldiers from Russia. The transfer was prepared for a long period of time, the coordination staff responsible for prisoners of war announced via Telegram on Friday.

The authority thanked the International Red Cross for its assistance. In return, Russia got 55 of its own soldiers killed, Duma deputy Shamsail Saraliyev said.

Heavy losses on both sides
Most recently, Ukraine handed over the bodies of 66 soldiers to Russia in late December. Ukraine has been fending off a Russian invasion for almost two years. Loss figures are kept secret by both parties. According to American estimates, more than 70,000 Ukrainian and more than 120,000 Russian soldiers have been killed since then. Tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians are missing.
