KYIV (Reuters) -Ukraine said it had received 31 civilians on Saturday who had been freed from jail in Belarus.
“Women and men detained in Belarus and sentenced to various terms of imprisonment ranging from two to 11 years are returning to Ukraine,” Kyiv’s prisoner exchange coordination committee said on the Telegram messaging app.
“We express our gratitude to the United States of America and President Donald Trump for their fruitful work in returning Ukrainian civilians and military personnel from Belarus and Russia,” it added.
