Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Saturday that 307 troops held captive by Russia had returned home, with Russia's defense ministry confirmed that the same number of soldiers had been brought back from Ukraine.

Ukraine’s capital Kyiv came under a large-scale Russian drone and missile attack overnight into Saturday, just hours after Russia and Ukraine began a major prisoner exchange.

CHERNIHIV REGION, Ukraine (AP) — An exchange of prisoners between Russia and Ukraine from their more than three-year war was underway Friday, a senior Ukrainian official said. The swap was not yet finished, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly.
