Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday sacked his chief prosecutor and the head of the country's security agency in the largest government shakeup since the start of Russia's "special military operation" nearly five months ago.

Zelenskyy said he was firing Prosecutor General Iryna Venediktova and security chief Ivan Bakanov amid a high number of cases of suspected treason by Ukrainian law enforcement officials.
