Russia, Ukraine conduct large prisoner exchange after Putin-Trump call
Russia and Ukraine have exchanged 175 prisoners of war each, both sides said on Wednesday, following a phone call between U.S. President Donald Trump and President Vladimir Putin in which the swap was discussed.
Russia handed over an additional 22 heavily wounded Ukrainian prisoners, both sides confirmed.
Russia and Ukraine have exchanged 175 prisoners of war each, both sides said on Wednesday, following a phone call between U.S. President Donald Trump and President Vladimir Putin in which the swap was discussed.
The Russian Defense Ministry said the 22 were in need of urgent medical care and had been returned in what it described as a goodwill gesture.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, in a statement on X, described the exchange as one of the largest of its kind and said the 22 Ukrainians were "severely wounded warriors and those whom Russia persecuted for fabricated crimes."
"All of them will immediately receive the necessary medical and psychological assistance," Zelenskiy said.
Russia's Defense Ministry said the United Arab Emirates had used mediation efforts of "a humanitarian nature" to facilitate the deal.
It said that the Russian soldiers freed in the deal were in Belarus receiving medical and psychological care before being transported to Russia for further treatment.
