Trains with the bodies of dead Ukrainian soldiers will start moving to the border within the next hour, Russian Lieutenant General Alexander Zorin said, Reuters reported, citing Russian media, BTA reports.
It seems that the transfer of bodies to the Ukrainian side will be postponed until next week, the general added.
