More than 100 Ukrainian prisoners of war freed in Easter exchange with Russia

More than 100 Ukrainian prisoners of war were released as part of a major Easter exchange with Russia on Sunday. Video posted by Russia's most powerful mercenary group, Wagner, showed troops escorting the Ukrainians down a muddy road and onto buses.

Dozens of families rejoiced as presidential adviser Andriy Yermak announced that 130 soldiers, sailors, border guards and others captured by Moscow were on their way back home following a “big Easter prisoner exchange.”

There was no immediate information on how many Russian prisoners were released.

Let's hope that next they meet, they meet as friends, and not enemies.

At least they have some sense of kindness to opposition force . Kindness is the power that we need. Happy to see treating human as human . Very few act wrongly because of ignorance. May kindness flourish all over the world to end the war.

I quite sure Zelensky will sent them back to frontline

With kindness comes compassion, and with compassion comes peace.

If only Western media showed this kind of compassion shown to by the Russians. Glory to the Russians who showed such kindness and compassion.

Something to be said about: the humanity you show your enemies.

Both sides act civil to eachother. Maybe this act of goodwill might help end the war.

Exchange? Where are the Russian side ?

[Cjdanks]

What would the elites, the oligarchy do if all the soldiers on both sides said " no we're not fighting your wars" ?

[leopolitan]

Prigozhin is really hedging his bets these days.

[nmdgks]

It's astonishing how Russians treat ukranian pows while ukranian troops are merciless with russian pows

One ukraine soldier missing! ...the beheaded soldier .

Чтобы и к нашим так хорошо относились бы! Лишь бы они обратно не пошли воевать с Россией.

Это не обмен. Россия на пасху отдала украине 140 пленных а в замен ничего.
