Zelensky Plans Major Military Leadership Shake-Up in Ukraine

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is considering dismissing the country's top military officer, Gen. Valerii Zaluzhnyi, as part of a broader leadership shakeup to ensure the country remains led by individuals "convinced of victory" against Russia. The potential ouster of the popular military chief has caused an uproar in Ukraine and worried Western allies, as the country faces ammunition and personnel shortages while Russia mounts relentless attacks. Zelenskyy's move comes amid tensions with Zaluzhnyi over the progress of the war and disagreements on military mobilization, and could further fuel uncertainty among Western allies and risk degrading morale at a critical time in the conflict.
