More than 100 men, some limping and others being carried on stretchers by their comrades, are seen walking one behind the other down a muddy road
Russian mercenary group Wagner sent at least 100 Ukrainian prisoners of war back to Ukrainian forces on the occasion of Orthodox Easter, according to a video posted today by the group’s founder Yevgeny Prigozhin.
“Prepare them all, give them food and water, check the wounded,” Prigozhin appears to state in the video posted on Telegram by his press service. A group of Ukrainian POWs are then seen being informed that they will be returning to Ukrainian forces in time for Easter. “I hope you don’t fall into our hands again,” Wagner’s armed mercenary tells the men before they board a truck.

More than 100 men, some limping and others being carried on stretchers by their comrades, are seen walking one behind the other on a muddy road, while a man holding a white flag stands on top of an armored car.
President Volodymyr Zelensky’s chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, said 130 Ukrainian prisoners of war had been freed and repatriated in a “big Easter swap”.
