According to Yarmak, a new person has already been appointed to this position, but he is not personally acquainted with the new chief of staff. The military official noted that many individuals from the volunteer movement have given positive feedback about this person.
A source from "Suspilne" in the Drone Forces also confirmed that Gladky was recently transferred from the SBS.
This information was confirmed to "Ukrainska Pravda" by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
"As a result of an investigation conducted by the Security Service of Ukraine, it was determined that Roman Gladky's continued tenure as chief of staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine's Drone Forces is untenable. Consequently, on October 14, 2024, he was dismissed from his position and reassigned to the reserve officer role in the reserve battalion," the statement said.
The new chief of staff of the Drone Forces has been appointed Colonel Alexey Khalabuda, the former commander of the 28th Separate Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
