Russia and Ukraine Begin Major Prisoner Swap in Multi-Stage Deal

SHARE

Russia and Ukraine have initiated their first large-scale prisoner swap in recent months, indicating a potential thaw in humanitarian cooperation amid continuous fighting. Officials from both sides verified that the initial stage of the swap has commenced, with multiple phases planned for the next day to complete the exchange.

This breakthrough comes after weeks of backchannel diplomacy and international mediation efforts. While the exact number of inmates swapped during this phase is unknown, both Kyiv and Moscow welcomed the agreement as a “significant humanitarian step forward.” Families on both sides have waited months, if not years, for their loved ones to return.

According to Ukraine’s Coordination Headquarters for POWs, the exchange included soldiers, doctors, and civilians. Meanwhile, Russian media reported that seized Ukrainian troops and detainees were being deported. Officials have not ruled out further swaps in the near future, implying that negotiations are underway behind the scenes.

Though the battle is far from over, this prisoner swap is seen as a rare glimmer of diplomacy. Human rights observers and the Red Cross have welcomed the move, urging both sides to maintain momentum and prioritize the safe return of all remaining detainees.
