     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Ukrainian prisoners of war are released in the first exchange with Russia in months :: May 31, 2024 :: Undisclosed location, Ukraine :: Nataliia Manuilova, released female soldier :: “I am glad to be back in my land, in my beloved Ukraine. Thank you!” :: “I used to live in my beloved Ukraine. I love Ukraine. They took everything I had. Thank God I have my son and my sister. Thank you very much! I cannot believe it.” :: “How come you are so tall now?” :: "I don’t have any emotions yet. But I am certain that I am already home.” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said 75 Ukrainian prisoners had been returned from Russia. They included four civilians while the rest were members of the military. Russia's Defense Ministry said Ukraine handed over 75 people, RIA news agency reported. Ukrainian officials said they brought back 19 defenders of Snake Island, a tiny rocky outcrop in the Black Sea that became a symbol of Ukrainian defiance in the first days of the war when Ukrainian guards refused to surrender to Russian forces. Ukraine's Coordinating Committee on Dealing with Prisoners of War said that as a part of the swap, the bodies of 212 Ukrainians were handed over by Russia.

     Ukraine calls on prisoners to fill waning infantry

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: REFILING TO REMOVE ON SCREEN GRAPHIC DETAILING LOCATION OF PRISON. Ukraine is turning to its prison population to fill the ranks of its waning infantry in the fight against Russia. Under a deal offered by the government, prisoners will have their sentences cleared if they serve in the army until the end of the war. The justice ministry says more than four thousand have applied so far including Mykola Rybalka, who is behind bars for theft. "You know, five years behind these walls leave their mark. You've seen a lot and understood a lot. You're not scared of anything anymore." Ukraine is struggling to recruit soldiers, particularly to fight in frontline positions that suffer heavy losses. Private Russian mercenary group Wagner recruited tens of thousands of Russian prisoners to fight in Ukraine, offering them a full pardon if they survived six months at the front. Prisoners in Ukraine convicted of certain offences, like multiple murders or treason, are barred from serving. Successful applicants need to pass medical checks and be approved by a court. Reuters was given access to a hearing chaired by Judge Dmytro Tkachenko. "The main issue is to make sure the prisoner freely agrees to join the military service and that his health makes him fit for it." More than 1,700 already have the green light. Over 780 prisoners have already been freed from prison and handed over to the armed forces but it will likely take months for significant numbers of new troops to be ready. The justice minister has previously said he expects between 10,000 and 20,000 inmates to sign up in total.

     NATO backs Ukraine's right to self-defense - Stoltenberg

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: 'We have the right to help Ukraine uphold the right to self-defense,' says NATO's Stoltenberg :: May 31, 2024 :: Prague, Czech Republic :: Jens Stoltenberg, NATO Secretary-General :: "Ukraine has the right for self-defense, we have the right to help Ukraine uphold the right to self-defense, and that does not make NATO allies party to the conflict. That was the case back in February 2022, that was the case last year and that remains the case. And escalation - well, Russia has escalated by invading another country, and Russia has escalated just last weeks by opening a new front, where they are hitting Ukraine from inside Russia. And of course, to assume that Ukraine should not hit back is in no way reasonable, because Ukraine must be able to defend their territory, also by hitting the artillery, the missiles, which are launched against them." The talks in Prague will focus on hammering out the details of a Ukraine support package, meant to be agreed at NATO's Washington summit July 9-11, that will also include changes to the way weapons and ammunition supplies are organised. NATO ministers are also expected to address what is seen as the latest shift in Western support for Ukraine, with several allies lifting restrictions that banned Kyiv from using donated weapons to strike targets inside Russia - a move that Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned the West against.

     Ukraine's Zelenskiy pushes allies to step up aid

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: "We are very grateful to our partners, that they are helping, but this is happening so slow." Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy told Reuters in an exclusive interview on Monday that his Western allies are taking too long to make key decisions on sending military support to Ukraine. "Every decision takes ages. We arrive at this decision later on, but it's like one year too late." Zelenskiy also said he was pushing Western partners to get more directly involved in the war by helping to intercept Russian missiles and to allow Ukraine to use Western weapons against enemy military equipment at the border and further inside Russian territory. "I'm sure we can have a proper dialogue and we can reach the consensus [regarding] the long-range missiles to hit the weapons of Russians located alongside the Ukrainian border. I believe we will reach this decision. Because the same happened with giving us tanks and armored vehicles, Patriots, right?" The United States has resisted Ukrainian calls to use its missiles against internationally recognized Russian territory, reflecting concerns in the West about the risk of escalation. "Everybody is afraid of escalation. So Ukrainians are dying. Well, everybody got used to that. That's not escalation." Zelenskiy's remarks come at a perilous time for his forces. They are outnumbered and outgunned by Russia's army, which recently crossed the border into the city of Kharkiv. Zelenskiy acknowledged Ukraine was losing territory in the northeast but he said the situation on the battlefield had improved. "Today the situation is controlled. A week ago it was more difficult." The United States finally passed a bill to provide military aid to Ukraine in late April, but it had been held up for months by opposition from some Republicans in Congress. Zelenskiy said he didn't see big risks to future aid if Republican Donald Trump, a Ukraine aid skeptic, wins the November election, but that didn't mean there were no concerns. "Both parties supported this package, which is why I wouldn't say that as of today I don't see some maximal risks. I don't believe that Republicans are against support for Ukraine, but some messages we can hear from them, well, they are causing concerns, in any case."

     Western aid to Ukraine too slow -Zelenskiy

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: He described the delivery of military aid, in particular of air defenses like the Patriot systems which Ukraine relies on heavily in its war with Russia, as "one big step forward, but before that, two steps back." "Every decision to which we, then later everyone together, comes to is late by around one year," he said, wearing his trademark khaki T-shirt and trousers and raising his voice at times. His tough remarks come at a perilous time for his forces, which are outnumbered and outgunned by Moscow's army and losing territory in the northeast and east of the country.
