Our people finally back home❤️🩹🫂
Today it became known about the exchange of prisoners of war in the format “146 for 146”.In addition to the military, some civilians were also released from captivity.
Former mayor of Kherson who spent 3 years in russian captivity, returned today. In 2022, Mykolayenko had the opportunity to return home, but he deliberately refused the exchange. The man insisted that the captured soldier, whose condition was critical, be returned to Ukraine.
Melitopol journalist Mark Kaliusz, who was sent by the Russians to undergo compulsory psychiatric treatment, was released from captivity.
Today, everyone is remembering this day in 2022 and sharing their feelings. But I want to share my memories of Bohdan, my sister's classmate. February 24 is his birthday. This bright and nice boy who believed in a sovereign and independent Ukraine and Ukrainian Donetsk has been in captivity for 4 years. His fate is unknown. I hope that his words “you can endure anything” will be prophetic.
I'm shaking... It's my friend. The last thing he wrote to me was: “I'll see you soon.” Just the other day I wanted to write to him. I didn't touch him on purpose, because I knew he was preparing for the EIT. I also feel guilty that we didn't manage to meet as planned in the fall of 2019. Life takes unexpected turns. When you decide to take the EIT and live in a territory free of the Russian world, and the next moment this very Russian world piles up behind you a couple of steps away from what you planned. Courageous people cannot be drowned. Especially those with a strong position like Bodi's. We are with you. Hold on!I have never watched the news every day, but now I have no other choice.P.S. The moment when you realize that if you hadn't left, you would have been with him. They tracked him through his posts.
My last happy birthday wishes to him before the Russians captured him
-I congratulate you on your birthday! I wish you more positive moments, understanding with your family and friends. I wish you to meet only good people in your life. And, of course, I wish you everything goes smoothly with your studies. That you pass the external independent evaluation and get into the university of your choice. We will see you in Ukrainian Donetsk. Do not give up hope. 🥳😏🤩🤗
-Oh, thank you so much for the kind words😀, and, of course, for the congratulations!
I will definitely see you soon!
💔

"I have accepted the fact that I will not see my father again. I do not believe that he will be released. Only a few people return from captivity, and I am not so lucky. Even when the war ends, I don't think Ukrainians will be released. They will all be killed, because the enemy does not care about prisoners. That's why I don’t want the war to end..."

"A person who experienced captivity has an entirely different view of the world and spiritual life. Everyone who returns from Russian captivity is a person with disabilities – both physically and mentally. Physically, it is because of the injuries, torture, and hunger that leaves long-lasting traces. And morally because many cannot return from that hell they went through. They might return physically, but psychologically, they find it hard or impossible."

Our people come back home
The 53rd exchange, which began on June 25 with the release of 90 Ukrainian defenders, has been completed today.
Ukraine managed to return 10 civilians who had been illegally detained in the occupied territories and Belarus.
Here is a brief description of those who returned home:
▪️ Nikolay Shvets was accused by the Belarusian authorities of blowing up a Russian A-50 long-range radar detection aircraft at the airfield in Machulishchi.
▪️ Valeriy Matyushenko was detained by the occupiers in the Donetsk region in July 2017. For some time, he was held in the Donetsk torture chamber "Izolyatsia", and later he was sentenced to 10 years in prison. In August last year, the Ombudsman wrote that Matyushenko's health condition was critical and the man needed to be released immediately.
▪️ UGCC priests Ivan Levitsky and Bohdan Geleta were detained by the occupation authorities in Berdiansk in November 2022. After the full-scale invasion, they remained in the temporarily occupied territory, where they continued to hold services for the faithful. The Russians accused the priests of illegal possession of weapons.
▪️ Olena Pekh is an art historian and researcher at the Horlivka Art Museum. She has been in Russian captivity since August 2018. In March 2020, she was sentenced to 13 years in prison.
- Don't cry, my daughter. I'm already in Ukraine, such nice guys met me and gave me a bouquet of flowers.
