(Reuters) - Dmytro Lubinets, the Ukrainian parliament's commissioner for human rights, called on Russia on Sunday to provide a list of Ukrainian prisoners of war ready for exchange after Moscow accused Kyiv of sabotaging the exchange process.

"I would like to receive from the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation all lists of Ukrainian prisoners of war, whom the Russian Federation is ready to urgently return!" Lubinets wrote on his Telegram messaging channel. "We are always ready to exchange prisoners of war!"
