"139 Ukrainian soldiers have just been released! Among them are servicemen who were captured near Debaltseve and the so-called 'cyborgs' [the Ukrainian defenders] from Donetsk airport," Poroshenko wrote.

"I demand that all the POWs and hostages be released. I have been doing and will do my best for this," he wrote.
