Russia and Ukraine conducted another prisoner swap under their "307 for 307" agreement, as confirmed by both Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russia's Defense Ministry.

According to Zelenskyy, Ukraine has regained military personnel, border guards, and National Guard members. Meanwhile, the released Russian soldiers have been transported to Belarus, where they're receiving required medical treatment and psychological support.

This follows the May 16 negotiations in Istanbul, where both sides agreed to a "1,000 for 1,000" prisoner exchange plan. The process began on May 23 and is scheduled to continue for three days. On the first day, 390 individuals were traded—270 combatants and 120 civilians. So far, the two nations have each repatriated 697 people over two days.
