Russia and Ukraine exchanged hundreds more prisoners Saturday as part of a major swap that amounted to a rare moment of cooperation in otherwise failed efforts to reach a cease-fire.

Russia & Ukraine swap hundreds more prisoners

The exchange came hours after Kyiv came under a large-scale Russian drone and missile attack that left at least 15 people injured.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russia's defence ministry said each side brought home 307 more soldiers on Saturday, a day after each released a total of 390 combatants and civilians.

"We expect more to come tomorrow," Zelenskyy said on his official Telegram channel.

Russia's defence ministry also said it expected the exchange to continue, though it did not give details.

Hours earlier, explosions and anti-aircraft fire were heard throughout Kyiv as many sought shelter in subway stations as Russian drones and missiles targeted the Ukrainian capital overnight.
