Russia has raised serious questions after Ukraine allegedly refused to receive over 6,000 fallen soldiers’ bodies offered in a humanitarian gesture. Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zakharova asked if Zelensky personally made the call—or if NATO intervened. Russia published 97 names to aid grieving families while accusing Kiev of hiding losses to avoid payouts. Ukraine denies stalling but hasn’t provided a new date. As talks in Istanbul stall, anger grows over the silence. Families remain in limbo, and the political blame game intensifies.

Russia has published the names of 97 fallen Ukrainian soldiers after Kiev allegedly refused to receive over 6,000 bodies returned in a humanitarian gesture. The move comes after talks in Istanbul, where Russia also offered a large prisoner exchange. Officials accuse Ukraine of hiding military losses to avoid compensation. Kiev denies delaying the process but hasn’t confirmed a new timeline. Governor Balitsky and other Russian negotiators have called it a calculated cover-up, further fueling tensions as families remain in the dark about their loved ones' fate.

Ukraine has unexpectedly postponed a planned exchange of prisoners of war and bodies of fallen soldiers, despite agreements reached during negotiations in Istanbul. Russian envoy Vladimir Medinsky stated that Kyiv failed to send its delegation or provide a finalized list of POWs, leaving thousands of Ukrainian soldiers’ bodies in cold storage. Russia, claiming full readiness to proceed, released footage of the frozen remains awaiting transfer. The delay, said to be “for an indefinite period,” has drawn criticism for depriving families of proper burials and violating earlier commitments.

Vladimir Putin has accused Ukraine of “resorting to terrorism,” blaming President Zelensky for deadly attacks on civilians, including a bridge blast and train derailment that killed seven and injured over 100. Calling the Kyiv government a “terrorist organization,” Putin rejected Ukraine’s proposed 30-day ceasefire, alleging it would allow rearmament. Moscow claims Kyiv’s sabotage aims to derail peace talks in Istanbul. Despite tensions, both sides agreed to begin a prisoner exchange between June 7–9, even as accusations deepen the diplomatic crisis.

Iran has signaled openness to a nuclear deal—if a proposed regional uranium consortium is based within its borders. The U.S. proposal, led by envoy Steve Witkoff, suggests shared enrichment oversight with countries like Saudi Arabia and Turkey under IAEA monitoring. However, Iran's Supreme Leader dismissed any plan not based on Iranian soil, calling it a national threat. With enrichment caps and underground work restrictions on the table, talks aim to balance nuclear transparency with Tehran’s sovereignty concerns. A sixth round of negotiations may take place this weekend.
