Ucrania y Rusia intercambiaron más de 400 prisioneros de guerra en la primera etapa del canje de 2.000 rehenes
El presidente ucraniano, Volodimir Zelensky, comunicó este viernes que 205 ucranianos regresaron al país tras un intercambio de prisioneros con Rusia. El acontecimiento se da luego de un ataque masivo contra Ucrania, en el que murieron 24 personas, incluidos tres niños.
“Hoy regresan del cautiverio ruso soldados de las Fuerzas Armadas de Ucrania, de la Guardia Nacional y del Servicio Estatal de Fronteras. Este es el primer paso de un canje de 1.000 por 1.000”, indicó.
Entre los liberados hay soldados rasos, sargentos y oficiales, muchos de los cuales estaban en cautiverio desde 2022. Los uniformados militares defendieron Ucrania en Mariúpol y Azovstal, así como en los frentes de Donetsk, Lugansk, Kharkiv, Khersón, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, Kiev y en la central de Chernóbil.
Zelensky agradeció a quienes trabajan por el regreso de los prisioneros, especialmente a los militares que “amplían el fondo de intercambio para Ucrania” y al equipo negociador, además de a los socios internacionales que colaboran en la liberación de ucranianos. “Seguiremos luchando por cada uno y cada una que sigue en cautiverio”, concluyó en su comunicado vía Telegram.
Por su parte, el Ministerio de Defensa de Moscú informó que 205 militares rusos fueron repatriados desde territorio controlado por Kiev en el frente de batalla, una semana después de que el presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, anunciara un gran canje entre las partes beligerantes y un alto el fuego que fue violado por el Kremlin.
“A este 15 de mayo, 205 militares rusos fueron repatriados desde el territorio” bajo control ucraniano, indicó el ministerio en un comunicado. A cambio, confirmaron que fueron devueltos 205 prisioneros de guerra de las Fuerzas Armadas de Ucrania.
Moscú señaló que Emiratos Árabes Unidos actuó como mediador humanitario en el proceso. El anterior intercambio, de 193 prisioneros por cada lado, tuvo lugar el 24 de abril.
En el marco del cese el fuego acordado con mediación del presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, del 9 al 11 de mayo, durante los festejos por el 81 aniversario de la victoria del Ejército Rojo sobre la Alemania Nazi, estaba previsto un canje de 1.000 por 1.000 de prisioneros de guerra. Ahora, según Zelensky, está en marcha.
El mandatario ucraniano confirmó el viernes pasado que Ucrania había recibido el visto bueno de Moscú para proceder con el intercambio de prisioneros, pero no reveló los detalles del proceso ni brindó fechas específicas.
En paralelo, las defensas aéreas ucranianas neutralizaron durante la noche del jueves y la madrugada del viernes 130 drones de larga distancia y un misil ruso, según informó la Fuerza Aérea de Ucrania en su parte diario. En ese periodo, Rusia lanzó contra territorio ucraniano un total de 141 drones de largo alcance y seis proyectiles.
La Fuerza Aérea detalló que cinco de los misiles no fueron derribados pero tampoco alcanzaron objetivos. También informó que siete drones impactaron en seis localizaciones distintas que no fueron especificadas, y que varios drones rusos continuaban sobrevolando Ucrania al momento de la publicación del parte.
Este nuevo ataque ruso se produce después de que las fuerzas del Kremlin lanzaran en las 48 horas anteriores centenares de drones y decenas de misiles, uno de los ataques de mayor duración desde el inicio de la invasión hace más de cuatro años. Uno de los misiles empleados en este ataque impactó en un edificio residencial en Kiev, provocando la muerte de al menos 24 personas.

FIRST ON FOX: As the White House touts «collapsing» violent crime rates in the U.S., the Department of Homeland Security is pointing to the deportation of violent criminal illegal immigrants as the «common sense» reason.
A new analysis by the Council on Criminal Justice (CCJ) released this month reported that homicides will «likely» reach a «new historic low» in the U.S. as most crime rates continue to decline mid-year. CCJ reported that homicides in a sample group of large U.S. cities are down 18% from the previous year, which is on pace for the lowest level since 1900. Additionally, carjackings are down 47%; motor vehicle thefts are down 20%; robberies are down 17% and residential burglaries are down 13%.
The White House touted the report as evidencing «extraordinary progress» in «delivering on one of President Trump’s core promises to restore law and order.»
Assistant DHS Secretary Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital, «It is common sense. When you remove criminals from the country, crime rates fall.»

The agency shared exclusively with Fox News Digital some of the «worst of the worst» criminal illegal immigrants who have been deported just in the last few weeks. Recent deportees include foreign nationals convicted of homicide, drug trafficking, aggravated assault, carjacking and other crimes, in addition to multiple with illegal re-entries into the country.
Among those deported was a member of the foreign terrorist organization Tren de Aragua, a Honduran national named Jared Adonay Cruz-Rivera, according to DHS. He was deported on July 18 following a previous conviction for robbery and an arrest on charges of drug possession.
DHS said that one deportee, Olegario Ramirez, a Mexican national and Paisas gang member, has a criminal history including convictions for homicide and illegal re-entry into the U.S. He was deported on July 27.
Another Mexican national deported the same day was Bulmaro Rendon-Ramos, a Surenos gang member, who had convictions for robbery, burglary and four counts of driving under the influence of liquor.

Commenting on the deportations, Bis told Fox News Digital that «President Trump promised to make America safe again, and he has done just that.»
«Crime has fallen to record lows under the Trump administration, including murders on pace to drop to the lowest level in 126 years. It’s no surprise that this drop in crime coincides with deportations of dangerous criminal illegal aliens,» she said.

Francesca Hong, the likely Democratic nominee for governor in Wisconsin backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, once argued that Americans should not celebrate Thanksgiving.
«Cancel Thanksgiving. Should have done this in 1621,» Hong wrote in a now-deleted post to X.
«If it takes a worldwide pandemic for us to realize we should stop celebrating colonialism and the original superspreader event that killed indigenous folx [sic] and women, so be it,» she added, referring to the spread of smallpox that killed many indigenous Americans.

The post, which was originally made in November 2020, sheds more light on Hong’s progressive thinking as she emerges as a frontrunner in the Wisconsin gubernatorial contest and drew mockery online.
«‘Folx,’» Stephen Miller, a conservative podcaster, posted to X, noting the term used to signal inclusivity of LGBTQ+ and other marginalized groups.
«Francesca Hong is all but certain to be the Democratic nominee for governor of Wisconsin. She also wants to ‘Cancel Thanksgiving,’ according to a since-deleted tweet. What is going on in Wisconsin??» another observer wrote.
Hong has leaned into her socialist record in her campaign, describing it as ensuring that «working-class people have their fair share.»
Hong shares policy positions with other notable progressives like New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, another self-proclaimed socialist. Among other platform positions, Hong is championing race-based grants for social workers, publicly funded grocery stores and a state-run bank.
The stances seem to have paid off as Hong has gained momentum in recent months, and, with under two weeks to go until the primary, looks poised to capture the Democratic nomination.

Hong also started getting mocked Friday for a resurfaced 2019 post where she said, «I ate two bites of my kid’s cheeseburger at a Culver’s in black river falls and told him they ran out of ice cream. Mostly just wanted to leave bc I was on the verge of a anxiety attack…to (sic) many old white people who didn’t think we spoke english.»
«Omg English ***TOO **AN,» she replied.
«Bold choice for Democrats in Wisconsin running someone statewide who gets a panic attack at Culver’s at the sight of ‘old white people,’» Former White House Principal Deputy Communications Director Alex Pfeiffer wrote on X.
«The only way this post could be worse for someone running for office in Wisconsin is if she had complained that Culver’s uses too much butter,» Chuck Ross, an investigative reporter at the Washington Free Beacon, wrote on X.
«One of the democrats running for Governor of Wisconsin doesn’t know that Culver’s serves only fresh frozen custard. She thinks they serve ice cream. Disqualifying,» Brick Suit, an online MAGA personality, wrote on X.
The race was shaken up on Thursday when Mandela Barnes, the state’s former lieutenant governor, dropped out of the race. Barnes was considered a frontrunner in the race because of his proximity to outgoing Gov. Tony Evers and his name recognition.
His exit also coincides with rumblings that Barnes may have abused his position in the past to make sexual advances toward women in the workplace, an allegation currently under investigation by The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
With his departure, Hong and Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley were left as the two main contenders.
Hong has received backing from a number of nationally recognized progressives, including Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif. She has raised nearly $709,000 as of late June, according to state records.

By comparison, Crowley has secured $250,000 and enjoys the support of a number of local organizations and figures.
Gov. Evers has endorsed Crowley , citing his experience.The gubernatorial primary will take place Aug. 11.
Fox News Digital has reached out to Hong’s campaign for comment.
