Protests across Ukraine against removal of the defense minister: AFP, local media

Large protests erupted in several Ukrainian cities on Thursday morning against the removal of popular Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov.

AFP reporters in Kyiv saw hundreds gathered on a central square, waving Ukrainian and EU flags and chanting "shame" and "bring Fedorov back," a day after he announced his resignation as part of a sweeping government reshuffle ordered by President Volodymyr Zelensky.
