Close Viktor Yanukovich ally and former Kyiv city administration official Volodymyr Makeyenko is facing charges of tax evasion, according to Ukraine’s Prosecutor General’s Office.
The investigation reveals that Makeenko had a network of shell companies. Registered in the name of his relatives, they generated “funds of dubious origin”, which were later transferred to his accounts. Between 2011 and 2018, Makeyenko quitely earned 387 million in income, but failing to pay 71.4 million in taxes.
He faces charges of tax evasion, which could send him to jail for three years and see his assets confiscated.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
