Large-scale protests have erupted in Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, against President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's signing of a law that restricts the powers of anti-corruption bodies. Residents of the capital poured into the streets with "Zelya – devil!" slogans, reacting harshly to the decision.
The editorial office reports that protesters are not leaving the city streets despite the curfew. Images circulating on social media show the crowd growing and discontent intensifying. The main demands of the protests are the repeal of the law and the accountability of the head of state.
Meanwhile, Yaroslav Zheleznyak, a deputy of the Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada, stated that a group of deputies is preparing to challenge the law signed by Zelenskyy in the Constitutional Court, arguing that it contradicts the constitution. He noted that this law creates serious legal problems and will paralyze anti-corruption mechanisms.
