Defence Minister reacts to the Zaluzhny's dismissal report

Defence Minister Rustem Umerov reacted to false information about the dismissal of the AFU Commander-in-Chief Valeriy Zaluzhny.
Umerov compared the throw-in to the activities of Russian propagandists.
Regarding another information throw-in from one of the MPs. Some unscrupulous politicians are trying to split Ukrainian society today - this is no better than what Russian propagandists are doing," the minister wrote on Facebook.
He also reminded that the information war is part of the Russian aggression against Ukraine. Therefore, "we should not become pawns in it, and even less helpers".
Everyone in the country today should focus on defence issues and do everything to strengthen our state, - concluded Umerov.
We shall remind you that today MP Volodymyr Aryev published a report, citing a "reliable source" with information that the Defence Minister allegedly made a submission to the Supreme Commander-in-Chief on the dismissal of the Commander-in-Chief of the AFU Valery Zaluzhny. However, the MP soon denied his statement.
- Negotiations between Ukraine and the US are ongoing, what was discussed and what the parties agreed on
- Ukraine has a plan for victory - Umerov
- Umerov urged Ukrainian refugees in the EU to join the Ukrainian Legion
- Umerov said Ukraine has a plan for 2024
- Syrsky and Umerov visited the front line
- Umerov and Zaluzhny visited positions near Kupyansk
