Ukrainian volunteers have been gathering the bodies of dead Russian soldiers in the country’s northeastern city of Kharkiv, following the retreat of Russian forces there. So far, 60 bodies were retrieved between March and April 2022, in the hopes of using them in a prisoner exchange. The remains have been transported to the capital Kyiv, where the team in charge of negotiating exchanges is based. Russia's Defence Ministry has yet to confirm whether it would agree to the body-for-prisoner swap.
