Dmytro Khyliuk, a Ukrainian journalist, was released from a Russian prison after three and a half years in captivity during the ongoing conflict. His release was part of a prisoner swap, which is rare for civilians. Dmytro has been reconnecting with families of other detainees, providing them with news of their loved ones. He shares chilling accounts of his treatment in captivity, including starvation and torture. Dmytro's family home in Kozarovychi has been damaged by the war, and his parents are elderly and unwell. The situation for other missing civilians remains dire, with many families still waiting for news. Dmytro's return brings mixed emotions as he adjusts to the changed reality of his home country.
