Ukraine overhaul plan

UKRAINE'S President Volodymyr Zelensky said he was weighing up a possible dismissal of the country's top military officer, a prospect that has shocked the nation fighting Russia's invasion and worried Kyiv's Western allies.

Asked whether he was considering the ousting of General Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Mr Zelensky told Italian RAI TV in an interview released late on Sunday, that he was thinking about it as part of a broader issue of setting the country's path.

He said that a reset, a new beginning is necessary' and it is 'not about a single person but about the direction of the country's leadership!
