2,526 Ukrainians returned from captivity since beginning of full-scale invasion

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy shared the information on Twitter.

"Every time we bring our people back from Russian captivity, we remember our fundamental goal: we will not leave anyone of ours, nothing of Ukraine to the enemy. Yesterday we returned 95 more of our guys, our warriors, from captivity. In total, since February 24 last year, we have already returned 2526 Ukrainians," he wrote.

President Zelenskyy thanked the team involved in the exchanges, as well as each soldier, "ensures that Ukraine has an "exchange fund" for the release of our people." He assured that Ukraine remembers all those who are in captivity and is doing everything possible to bring them home.

Щоразу, коли повертаємо наших людей з російського полону, пам’ятаємо про фундаментальну мету: нікого свого, нічого українського ворогу не залишимо.

Вчора ми повернули з полону ще 95 наших хлопців, наших воїнів. Загалом за час після 24 лютого минулого року вже повернуто 2526… pic.twitter.com/7Votfg6FDp
