Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has announced a sweeping overhaul of Ukraine’s military operations, highlighting urgent changes in air defense, frontline logistics and troop replenishment after a high-level meeting with top commanders and the defense minister. He said air defense in several regions will be “almost completely reorganized,” including interceptors, mobile fire groups and short‑range systems, alongside stricter oversight of drones, weapons and personnel on the front. Zelensky added that the defense minister and military command are drafting concrete measures to “strengthen Ukraine and solve existing problems,” promising details once decisions are fully refined, fueling speculation about the scale and urgency of the shake‑up amid intense Russian pressure.
