President Volodymyr Zelensky dismissed Kyrylo Tymoshenko, deputy head of the President's Office, on Jan. 23.

Tymoshenko was among the most influential officials in the country and the unofficial head of regional policy in Zelensky's office.

Appointed as deputy head of Zelensky's office in May 2019, after Zelensky took office, Tymoshenko had been entangled in several scandals.

Among the recent scandals, Bihus.info investigative journalism project alleged that Tymoshenko was using for his own purposes a Chevrolet Tahoe donated for evacuating civilians from combat zones.

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.

We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.

Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?

Can we reach 20,000 members?
