Russia and Ukraine finalized the largest exchange of prisoners on Sunday that reflected a rare moment of cooperation in otherwise failed efforts to reach a ceasefire in the more than three years of war.
Russia's Defense Ministry said each side brought home 303 more soldiers after each released a total of 307 combatants and civilians on Saturday and 390 on Friday.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed the exchange, writing on social media that "303 Ukrainian defenders are home." He noted that the troops returning were members of the "Armed Forces, the National Guard, the State Border Guard Service and the State Special Transport Service."
