Post navigation Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has fired all regional recruitment heads in the Ukrainian military after it was discovered that soldiers at the frontline were routinely being bribed for promotions. This measure comes after the government launched an investigation into alleged corruption practices within the military. The government also created a commission to tackle corruption in the military and ensure the highest level of soldier rights. Niger soldiers overthrew the country’s president and took control of the government in a coup. This coup is a power grab and has been condemned by the United Nations and other west African countries. The African Union is taking steps to assess the situation and work to restore the rule of law.
