On Friday, Ukraine announced that Russia returned 757 bodies of Ukrainian servicemen who died in battle, in the largest operation of this kind since the beginning of the war.
According to the words of the deputy head of the Ukrainian President's office, this is considered a humanitarian assessment and implies the absence of political motives. A column with the returned bodies from Russia arrived on Friday, and the Russian Federation continues to cooperate in the matter of the return of bodies of the deceased.
