A rally is scheduled for May 19 in Kyiv to support the defenders of the Mariupol garrison, who have been held captive by Russia for over four years.
This was reported to NZL by the public organization “Olenivka Community”
On May 19, a rally will be held in Kyiv in support of the defenders of Mariupol, who have been held captive by Russia for over four years.
Where? The rally will take place on May 19 at 9:00 a.m. in Kyiv, on Ivan Franko Square.
What else is known? The organizers are calling on people to join the rally to support the captured defenders of the Mariupol garrison and to remind everyone of the need for their return home.
Ukraine recently repatriated 193 servicemen from captivity.
As a reminder, all 11 Ukrainian prisoners of war whom Russia transferred to Hungary in 2023 subsequently left the country. Most of them returned to Ukraine, while the rest moved to other countries.
Ukraine and Russia conducted a new prisoner exchange on the eve of Easter, but they were unable to agree on a larger number of releases. Kyiv states that it proposed expanding the lists, but the Russian side refused. Despite this, Ukraine expects the exchanges to continue.
