Ukraine has released medical doctor Galina Fedyshyn from Russian captivity. The occupiers several times imitated her transfer for exchange, but eventually returned her back to the place of detention.

Ukraine managed to liberate from Russian captivity a combat medic from the 36th Brigade of the Ukrainian Army Halyna Fedyshyn, UNN reports.

"Halyna Fedyshyn, the last female marine who was captured, is home! She went through a difficult path of defense of Mariupol, the Ilyich plant, Azovstal and hellish captivity...", - said the commander of the 36th separate marine brigade Serhiy Volynskyi 

According to the General Staff, while in captivity, Fedyshyn spoke Ukrainian as a matter of principle. The Russians several times imitated her removal for exchange, but eventually returned her back to the place of detention.
