Zelenskyy reshuffles Ukraine's military leadership after protests

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has dismissed army chief Oleksandr Syrskyi and appointed Mykhailo Drapatyi as the new commanderinchief of the armed forces. The move comes after nearly a week of protests in several Ukrainian cities over the earlier removal of former defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov, highlighting growing political tension during the war with Russia. Zelenskyy said the military must keep operating without interruption, while Fedorov congratulated Drapatyi and signaled support for the change. The reshuffle marks one of the most significant internal crises Ukraine has faced since Russia's fullscale invasion in 2022.
