Quote: “Apparently, the enemy decided that information, in particular, about the details of prisoner-of-war exchanges and the downing of the Il-76 aircraft, posed a threat to them.

For security reasons, access to certain functions and resources will be restricted for a while.

Despite all the obstacles, the Coordination Headquarters continues to work on the return of our citizens from Russian captivity.”

Background:

  • A Russian Il-76 aircraft crashed in the Korocha district of Russia’s Belgorod Oblast. Sources in the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated the plane was carrying S-300 anti-aircraft missiles. The Russian Defence Ministry said the plane was carrying Ukrainian prisoners of war to Belgorod for a swap. According to the Russian Ministry of Defence, two Ukrainian missiles were “fired”, killing 74 people, including 65 Ukrainian POWs.
  • Kyrylo Budanov, Head of Ukraine’s Defence Intelligence, has said that neither Russia nor Ukraine has a complete answer as to what happened when the Il-76 aircraft crashed in Russia’s Belgorod Oblast.

  • Kyrylo Budanov has also said that the prisoner exchange that had originally been planned for 24 January, the day the Russian Il-76 aircraft crashed in Russia, will take place very soon.
