Power Struggle in Kyiv Decided: Surprising Winner Emerges as Zelenskyy Dismisses Army Chief

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has dismissed the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, Oleksandr Syrskyi, following days of protests. The move appears to disempower representatives of the old military school, at least temporarily. The new army chief is a younger commander who gained prominence for a daring military operation. The decision signals a shift in Ukraine's military leadership amid ongoing conflict and internal political tensions.
