Reshuffle in the Armed Forces
Zelenskyy recently announced that the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrskyi, has carte blanche to reshuffle the army.
According to the chief of the Armed Forces, his main task is to effectively use the combat capabilities of weapons and equipment, as well as to hold positions and restore the lost position.
In addition, Syrskyi has already announced personnel changes among commanders in certain combat brigades to preserve the lives and health of Ukrainian soldiers.
On March 4, President Zelenskyy changed the commander of the Support Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Thus, Oleksandr Yakovets replaced Dmytro Hereha in this position.
