Ukraine PM Resigns in Cabinet Overhaul

The dismissal of Svyrydenko is part of a wider government overhaul that may also see Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov replaced after just six months in office.

Lawmaker Denys Maslov, who chairs the legal policy committee, is widely expected to become the next justice minister and has defended the pace of judicial reform.

The changes come as Ukraine faces its deadliest month for civilians since April 2022, with Russian strikes intensifying.
