1 / 4
On Thursday, Russia handed over the remains of 1,000 Ukrainian troops in exchange for 41 Russian service members, a top lawmaker from the ruling party told state news agencies. Ukraine has confirmed the transfer, marking the third such repatriation this year after similar exchanges in January and February. Footage released by a state-run agency showed personnel in protective suits moving body bags between trucks at a designated border point. These humanitarian handovers remain the most concrete outcome of US-brokered talks between the two nations.
