Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy ousted Prime Minister Svyrydenko and pushed for a policing revamp against a backdrop of tension. Svyrydenko announced his the departure following a brief tenure. Ukraine cited recent battlefield gains as a impetus to advance on security and leadership reforms.
Zelenskyy additionally convened with ten countries in Paris to introduce an ballistic‑missile shield for Europe. The group vowed to bolster area defenses as Ukraine says war turns in its favor.
