A sweeping anti-corruption operation by Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO) has uncovered a criminal organization reportedly involving top government officials. Searches are underway, including those related to Iryna Mudra, Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, and Member of Parliament Andriy Stolár.
Meanwhile, Russian forces launched a deadly drone attack on a bus in Kherson, killing four civilians and injuring five. This incident adds to the ongoing series of intense Russian attacks, which also included two ballistic missiles and over 60 strike UAVs overnight, and more than a thousand attacks in Zaporizhzhia Oblast in a single day.
Amidst the conflict, Ukrainian retail and FMCG companies are demonstrating resilience by adapting their logistics. They are diversifying stock, shifting to direct supply, partner warehouses, and cross-docking in response to recent attacks on storage facilities. Separately, a fatal car crash in Kyiv saw a speeding Volkswagen collide with a bus stop, causing casualties.
