The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “Captured British fighter thanks Zelensky for his release from Russian death penalty” – below is their description.

Five Britons detained by Russia-backed separatists in Ukraine have landed at Heathrow after the biggest prisoner swap in the war to date.
