Relatives of POWs complain about the Red Cross

One of the rally participants, Vasily, shared that his brother has been missing for almost a year. However, there have been no actions from the Red Cross that could provide any assistance.

According to the man, the organization hasn't even provided any information about whether his brother, who fought in the 46th separate airborne brigade, is alive.

"There is very little exchange specifically with the airborne troops. In the last exchange of 150 for 150, only one guy from the 46th brigade was swapped," Vasily, the brother of the POW, stated.

It is worth noting that on February 5, 150 soldiers were returned to Ukraine from Russian captivity. Among them were privates, sergeants, and officers.

In the Coordination Headquarters, the first footage of the POW exchange was shown, revealing that most of them had been in captivity for over 2.5 years.
