After a deadly jail blast, Ukrainians want answers about war prisoners held by Russia

Olha Kerod, the wife of a Ukrainian soldier who was captured by Russian forces in Mariupol, poses in front of the Church of Sts. Olha and Elizabeth, where she often prays, in Lviv, Ukraine, on July 18. "I pray for all the soldiers, not just Stas," her husband, she says. "I will keep praying until they all come home."

The families of Ukrainian soldiers imprisoned by Russian forces have embarked on a desperate search for information after a deadly explosion at the Olenivka prison.
