OR Ukraine He announced today that he had recovered the corpses of 909 Ukrainian soldiers killed on the battlefield after a similar exchange that took place in late March, the most important after the start of the Russian invasion in February 2022.

“The bodies of 909 Ukrainian defenders killed in the battle were transferred to Ukraine,” the Talegram headquarters for the management of prisoners wrote in a message on the Telegram.

On March 28, the two countries also exchanged soldiers’ corpses, with Kiev receiving the same number, 909 and Moscow announcing for the same day the return of 43 bodies of soldiers.

The exchange of bodies of military, as well as prisoners of war, is one of the rare areas of cooperation between Moscow and Kiev.

The Russian, as well as the Ukrainian authorities, appear particularly sparkling in the announcement of their losses.

US President Donald Trump spoke on Monday about “millions of people killed” in the war, blaming both Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelenski and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The Ukrainian leader said in mid -February on the US television network NBC that more than 46,000 Ukrainian soldiers had been killed and about 380,000 were injured.

Various media, citing Western sources, have spoken of very heavy reports, including 50,000 to 100,000 dead on the battlefield.

For its part, Russia does not communicate its losses from the autumn of 2022, when it admitted that at least 6,000 its troops were killed.

The Mediazona Independent Website and the BBC Russian Service say they have recorded up to about 100,000 Russian troops killed in the battle.
