Ukraine's Zelenskyy Takes Action Against Corrupt Army Recruiters

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has fired all the heads of the country's regional army recruitment centers in a crackdown on corruption. An investigation revealed abuses by officials, including illegal enrichment and transporting draft-eligible men across the border during wartime. Zelenskyy announced that 112 criminal cases have been opened against draft board officials suspected of bribery and corruption. The dismissed officials will be replaced by war veterans and soldiers wounded at the front. This move signals Ukraine's commitment to addressing corruption, a long-standing issue in the country's armed forces.
