Zelensky ties Kyiv suburb ammo blast to Ukroboronprom, vows purges at defense giant

President Zelensky said the Vyshneve ammunition depot that exploded during Russia’s attack on Kyiv belonged to Ukroboronprom, Ukraine’s state defense conglomerate; a criminal investigation is underway with the SBU, Interior Ministry, and Prosecutor General’s Office, and he promised layoffs at Ukroboronprom as casualties from the overnight strikes mount in Kyiv and surrounding areas.
