Kyiv says Russia returned 1,212 soldiers' bodies to Ukraine

Ukraine said on Wednesday that Russia had returned the bodies of 1,212 soldiers who died fighting Moscow's invasion, part of an agreement between the two sides reached at peace talks in Istanbul last week.

"As a result of repatriation activities, the bodies of 1,212 fallen defenders were returned to Ukraine," a government agency said in a statement after Moscow spent days accusing Kyiv of not wanting to collect the bodies.
