“If you open our Jira and look at the progress in the OKR system, it’s about 85% complete. So, we are almost ready. Just a few days ago, we figured out a way to significantly simplify the reporting service for the military, so that as many soldiers as possible can use it. Now we are considering how to quickly integrate this functionality into the legal framework,” said Artem Romanyukov, head of the Directorate of Digital Transformation at the Ministry of Defense.
Amendments to Ukraine’s enforcement proceedings legislation, initiated by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, have entered into force.

It is looking for concrete ways to bring ordinary people into the work of defense and resistance.
Petro Poroshenko’s lawyers have appealed to the High Anti-Corruption Court demanding that NABU be obligated to register proceedings regarding the fact of exerting influence on the court and to recognize Petro Poroshenko as a victim in the case of the Deputy Head of the Office of the President, Iryna Mudra, due to her pressure on Supreme Court judges who were considering a lawsuit to overturn sanctions.
Internationally recognized brands and financial institutions should direct capital to Ukraine now, not waiting for the hostilities to end.
