The biggest prisoner swap to date has continued for a second day, with three hundred and seven POWs released from each side. A total of 2,000 prisoners could be allowed to return to their homes over three days. A Ukrainian official involved in coordinating the treatment of those returning home says over 95% of them were tortured.
Also in the programme: the Gaza doctor and mother who’s lost nine children in an airstrike; and could the Vatican have a role in bringing peace to Ukraine?
