OREANDA-NEWS Thirteen civilians of the Kursk region, who are in Ukraine, are being held as prisoners of war, said Tatyana Moskalkova, Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation.
"According to the data of the returned Kuryans, there were 13 more people with them who did not get into this exchange of 1000 for 1000. Civilians were held together with prisoners of war... the Kuryans are ordinary hard workers, farmers. They were captured because they wanted to cross over from the war zone to Russia. They were put in jail, then in a penal colony," Moskalkova told reporters.
From May 23 to May 25, the largest 1,000-to-1,000 prisoner exchange in three years of conflict took place on the Belarusian-Ukrainian border between Russia and Ukraine.
