ISTANBUL 

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday appointed new deputy heads and advisers to the presidential office, the latest in a series of appointments in a mass government reshuffle.

Two decrees were published on the website of Ukraine’s presidential office, appointing former Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk and Viktor Mykyta, the former governor of the western Zakarpattia region, as deputy heads of the presidential office.

Two more decrees said former Strategic Industries Minister Oleksandr Kamyshin and Dmytro Lytvyn were appointed as advisers to the president on strategic issues and communications, respectively.

The latest appointments are part of the biggest government reshuffle since the Ukraine war began in February 2022, which saw nine new ministers take office.
