They offered to release them in exchange for the opportunity to talk to the Belgorod Governor, Gladkov. There is fighting in this region. 

The volunteers made this offer in a video message. 

The Freedom of Russia Legion and the Russian Volunteer Corps are volunteer formations of Russian citizens and ethnic Russians who are fighting against Russian troops. On June 4, the FRL and RVC announced fighting near the village of Novaya Tavolzhanka in the Belgorod region. Later, the Russian volunteer corps claimed that their advanced units were in the suburb of Shebekino. It is a small Russian town located 10 kilometres from the border with Ukraine.

Apparently, they managed to capture two Russian soldiers during the hostilities. They offered the governor of the Belgorod region, Vyacheslav Gladkov, to meet them in the village of Novaya Tavolzhanka and exchange the POWs for the opportunity to talk.
