The Ukrainian Snake Island sailors who told a Russian warship to “go f–k yourself” before they were captured a month ago have now been freed in a prisoner swap with Moscow. The 19 sailors were released from Russian captivity on Thursday, Ukraine’s deputy prime minister Iryna Vereschuk revealed. In exchange, Ukraine freed 11 Russian civilian sailors they had rescued from a sunken ship near Odessa, Vereschuk said. It wasn’t immediately clear when the Russian sailors were captured.
