Everything that happened in Ukraine Army Chief Sacked

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired General Oleksandr Syrskyi as Commander-in-Chief of Ukraine amid protests.

Zelenskyy replaced Syrskyi with Major General Mykhailo Drapatyi, a popular frontline commander seen as a modernist.

Former Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov, ousted earlier, welcomed the decision; Fedorov's dismissal had sparked protests.

Fedorov led Ukraine's successful drone campaign but clashed with Syrskyi over war strategy, favoring drones and robots over traditional methods.

Zelenskyy initially sided with Syrskyi in the dispute, leading to Fedorov's ouster.
