Ombudsman: Some 800 severely wounded Ukrainian servicemen are in Russian captivity.



Ukrainian parliamentary ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets said this in an interview with Radio Liberty, noting that he discussed this issue at a meeting with Russian ombudsman Tatyana Moskalkova.

Lubinets said that the Ukrainian servicemen should be returned to Ukraine under Article 110 of the Third Geneva Convention:

Repatriation is not an exchange. It is the return of wounded, severely wounded prisoners of war without any conditions, without reference to numbers.

According to him, the Russian side claims that there are 200 seriously wounded Russian army prisoners of war on Ukrainian territory.

We shall remind you that earlier, Ukraine and Russia agreed to create a corridor for the exchange of prisoners of war.
