Kyiv rejects Russia's claims that Ukraine is delaying exchange of soldiers' bodies
- A planned swap of prisoners between Ukraine and Russia scheduled for Saturday did not take place at the designated site.
- Russia accused Ukraine of unexpectedly postponing the swap of prisoners and soldiers' bodies for an indefinite period, while Kyiv denied these claims.
- During negotiations held in Istanbul earlier this week, both parties consented to exchange prisoners who are severely injured or under the age of 25 and to facilitate the return of around 12,000 fallen soldiers.
- Russia reportedly had 1,212 frozen bodies at the exchange point and provided Ukraine a list of 640 prisoners, but Ukraine called Russia's list and accusations false and obstructive.
- The failure of the prisoner exchange highlights ongoing mistrust and stalled peace efforts amid continued Russian missile attacks killing civilians in Ukraine.
