Ukraine says Russia returned more than 500 soldiers' bodies

Hindustan Times  

Kyiv on Friday said Russian authorities returned over 500 bodies of Ukrainian soldiers killed in combat, with most having died in the eastern Donetsk region. Soldiers search for bodies following rains and flash floods that caused rivers to overflow in Valencia and other parts of Spain, in the Poyo ravine in Quart de Poblet, Valencia, Spain, November 13, 2024. "As a result of repatriation activities, the bodies of 502 fallen defenders were returned to territory controlled by the government of Ukraine," Kyiv's Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War said on social media. It said 24 were returned from the eastern Lugansk region and 64 from the southern Zaporizhzhia area, while 17 were handed back from morgues on Russian territory.
