Episode Details

Ukraine’s anti-corruption forces are launching a major crackdown on a criminal syndicate allegedly led by current and former lawmakers, with top officials from President Zelenskyy’s office now in the crosshairs — adding fresh turmoil to an already shaky administration. This comes after the controversial ousting and investigation of his chief of staff last year, and follows the recent appointment of Yevhenii Khmara as defense minister, replacing Mykhailo Fedorov — whose resignation triggered protests and calls for elections even under martial law. Fedorov also slammed corruption as a crippling force in the war effort, though he avoided naming names. Amid these political storms, Ukraine’s military continues to notch victories with drone strikes on Russian oil infrastructure, but still struggles to secure critical air defense systems.
