The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), Oleksandr Syrsky, suspended Roman Hladkyi, Chief of Staff of the Unmanned Systems Command, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The General Staff clarified that the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) will conduct a special investigation into Hladkyi, who was appointed to the position in late August. This decision followed a meeting of the Verkhovna Rada’s Committee on National Security, Intelligence, and Defense, which had previously demanded such an investigation.

Shortly after Hladkyi’s appointment became public, information began to spread that he had previously been suspected of treason and corruption, and that his wife holds a Russian passport. Ukrainian military personnel expressed outrage on social media.

Ukrinform also reported that Hladkyi’s daughter had participated in swimming competitions for the Central Sports Club of the Russian Army. Additionally, according to the TSN TV channel, Russian intelligence services had attempted to recruit Hladkyi himself.

    He may be resisting using UAVs and FPVs inside Russia. There has been a tremendous amount of moment shifted by the last month of deep strike inside Russia. If he was trying to slow that down, it could be a sign of subversion.
