Kyiv repatriated 522 bodies, which Moscow says are Ukrainian citizens, according to kyivindependent. The Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War has not specified how many civilians and military personnel were among the repatriated bodies, kyivindependent reported.
Ukraine and Russia occasionally exchange the bodies of soldiers killed on the battlefield, newsukraine.rbc.ua reported. The exchange of civilian bodies occurs much less often than that of soldiers, the outlet added.
The bodies of fallen soldiers and prisoners of war are brought to Ukraine each month, and each repatriated body must be identified and returned to its family, newsukraine.rbc.ua said. Several agencies, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs, are involved in the repatriation process, the outlet noted.
