"Zelensky Overhauls Ukraine's Military Leadership Amid War Efforts"
TL;DR Summary
Ukrainian President Zelensky has fired the country's top military commander, General Valerii Zaluzhnyi, in a major shakeup amid tensions and disagreements over defense strategy and the failure of Ukraine's counteroffensive against Russia. Zaluzhnyi's replacement will be Oleksandr Syrskyi, and the move is seen as a political gamble for Zelensky, as the now-former military chief remains highly popular. The dismissal comes as Ukraine faces renewed Russian onslaught, manpower and ammunition shortages, and stalled US aid in Congress.
