“Quite a lot. I can say that more than a thousand people,” said Ihor Klymenko, answering the question of how many people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine remain in Russian captivity.
According to the head of the department, the employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who fall into Russian captivity, gradually return home thanks to exchanges.
