The Defense Forces are actively filling the exchange fund for three days – Zelensky.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in his address stated that Ukrainian defenders are increasingly capturing Russian occupiers over the past three days. He expressed gratitude to the warriors for their participation in filling the Ukrainian exchange fund, which helps to free Ukrainians from Russian captivity.

«I am proud of all our combat brigades! And separately, I want to thank those of our warriors and our units who ensure the replenishment of the exchange fund – taking the occupier prisoner and thereby helping to free our people from Russian captivity. This is extremely important and over the past three days – especially effective», – he emphasized.

Zelensky stressed that Ukraine must ensure freedom for all Ukrainians who are in Russian captivity.

Recently, more and more videos are appearing online showing Ukrainian military capturing Russian occupiers. According to reports, Russian troops are holding more than 14 thousand civilian Ukrainians in captivity.

It is also worth noting that Russian occupiers torture Ukrainian prisoners of war from the first interrogations. This practice of torture is widespread and systematic in Russian captivity.
