Fedorov out as Ukraine’s defense minister in major government shake-up

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy dismissed Mykhailo Fedorov as Ukraine's minister of defense after six months in office. Fedorov, a proponent of drone warfare, announced his departure following conflicts with generals and military contractors. These disputes centered on the role of innovative robot and drone weapons in the war. This removal represents a major government shake-up, reflecting internal tensions regarding the implementation of advanced technological weaponry within the military structure during the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
