Ukraine's Security Service prepares for 1,000-for-1,000 prisoner swap with Russia

Details:The SSU's Joint Centre for the Coordination of the Search and Release of Prisoners is compiling a list of the Russian military personnel that Ukraine may transfer as part of the swap.

Meanwhile, the SSU, together with the Ministry of Health and other state agencies, is getting all the necessary infrastructure ready to receive Ukrainian military personnel after they are released from captivity – from logistics to medical staff, support and rehabilitation.

Background:

  • Kyrylo Budanov, Head of Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (DIU), has said he is confident that the thousand-for-thousand prisoner exchange with Russia will take place next week.
  • On 16 May, Vadym Skibitskyi, Deputy Head of DIU, reported that Ukraine has begun reviewing the lists of POWs who are to be brought back to Ukraine as part of the prisoner swap with Russia. 
  • An agreement on the simultaneous release and exchange of 1,000 prisoners on each side was reached between the Ukrainian and Russian delegations in Istanbul on 16 May 2025.
