KYIV (Reuters) -Ukraine has brought home 185 service personnel and 20 civilians in the latest prisoner swap with Russia, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Thursday.
"Most have been in captivity since 2022, and now they are finally home," Zelenskiy said on the Telegram app, posting pictures of men wrapped in Ukrainian national blue and yellow flags. Since the start of Russia's invasion, Ukraine has brought home over 7,000 people, Zelenskiy said.
