Ok, we have a suspect in the Wildberrie's warehouse fire. -
Edited to add: It now seems that the warehouse was indeed hit by Ukrainian drones. Peskov will go ape shite over this. Can't wait.

Also don’t forget that Russia has been bombing Nova Poshta post office warehouses in Ukraine, so this could be seen as symmetric retaliation

Wildberrie's year from hell. Their customer base can't use their online bank payment system, inflation is running at 16%, imports are limited to Chinese goods and the country is losing a very expensive war.
You forgot that they increasingly can't get/afford the fuel for their delivery trucks.

Zelenskyy considers sacking commander-in-chief as protests swell
Financial Times
quote:
Volodymyr Zelenskyy is considering sacking Ukraine’s commander-in-chief, who is known as “the Butcher”, as he seeks to navigate a path out of the biggest military leadership crisis of his presidency.
Oleksandr Syrsky’s leadership of the armed forces has become a lightning rod for protests that have grown since Zelenskyy fired the civilian defence minister after a deepening rift between the two leaders became untenable.
According to a senior administration official, Zelenskyy is gathering military commanders this weekend to hear their assessments of the battlefield situation and to interview candidates to take command of the army.
That person said Zelenskyy was open to removing Syrsky from his post if he could find a commander who would ensure a smooth transfer of power while maintaining a strong defence along the 1,200km front line.
Zelenskyy fired Mykhailo Fedorov as defence minister this week after Syrsky presented the president with an “ultimatum” to remove the 35-year-old cabinet minister, according to Fedorov.

According to a senior administration official, Zelenskyy is gathering military commanders this weekend to hear their assessments of the battlefield situation and to interview candidates to take command of the army.
But the more important decision of re-instating Federov must follow. They can't reinstate him as MoD, that office is already filled (the fait accompli comes back to bite again). But Zelensky can put him anywhere else and give him an increased budget as well. That is what is called The Solution.

pressure from Ukraine's civil society is having an impact
quote:
President Zelenskyy just said he spoke at length with the former defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov who he sacked this week and talks with him and others are ongoing. Fedorov confirmed below and said "change is inevitable." No decisions yet but something is up.
Zelenskyy also said he spoke to commander in chief Oleksandr Syrsky today. I reported @FT earlier that the president is interviewing potential candidates to replace him, in line with protesters' demands.
I am told that the president will hold more talks tomorrow.
The crisis is not over but pressure from Ukraine's civil society is having an impact and I'm told the president is following and listening.

‘I never said it was either me or Syrskyi. But I cannot stay silent.’

I want to briefly discuss my record as defense minister.

This column was prepared from remarks by Mykhailo Fedorov and a Q&A session at a briefing.
The old problem - new thinking backed by technology running into obstacles put up by the older commanders protecting their turf to the disadvantage of the war effort. Federov outlines each issue without pointing fingers but clearly lays the blame on the top:
quote:
What solutions did we propose?
Sweeping personnel changes — replacing both the commander in chief and the chief of the General Staff.
Significantly, he didn't give Zelensky an ultimatum but Syrskyi did. And Zelensky made the mistake. But he can still rectify it. Let's see what happens.

If Zelensky's talking to Drapatyi, he's talking to a person that tells the truth about the current Ukrainian command structure. He has paid the price for this by being reprimanded and demoted, so Syrskyi is not going to be happy.
Drapatyi's bio.
