Ukraine and Russia carried out a secret prisoner exchange: more than 10,000 fighters released

According to hvylya.net:

Ukraine and Russia carried out an exchange of more than 10,000 fighters through a secret channel without unnecessary publicity. In recent weeks, about 1,200 soldiers have been returned to their positions, reports The Wall Street Journal.

Military intelligence officers from both countries manage this prisoner exchange channel, which operates effectively and professionally. This is possible even in a war where the parties have virtually agreed on nothing else but the exchange of prisoners of war.

Creation and development of the exchange channel

According to sources from the publication, after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014, contacts between the parties are possible even in the most difficult times. This has allowed for the exchange of prisoners, which is a fairly rare phenomenon in modern wars.

As a result of the efforts of the leaders of both countries and the mediation of European and Middle Eastern states, the exchange of prisoners continues despite the difficulties. Ukraine emphasizes a humane attitude towards captives, while Russia is known for its brutality and unfavorable detention conditions.

Ukraine and Russia were able to carry out an exchange of more than 10,000 fighters through a secret channel that has been operating between the countries for a long time. This channel operates professionally and efficiently, providing the possibility of returning captured soldiers to their positions. It is important to note that the exchange of prisoners of war continues even in difficult conditions, thanks to the efforts of the leaders of both countries and the support of other states.
