# Ukraine received a thousand bodies from Russia that Moscow said were of fallen Ukrainian soldiers. A government body that provides information on Russian prisoners of war and missing Russian soldiers says Ukraine returned the bodies of 24 Russian soldiers in exchange. The repatriation of soldiers’ bodies and the exchange of prisoners-of-war are some of the only areas of cooperation between Ukraine and Russia amid the war. Tens of thousands of soldiers have been killed on both sides since Russia invaded in 2022, though neither side regularly publishes data on their own casualties.
