Pentagon: Zelensky still in control of Ukrainian military

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy retains “command and control” of Ukraine’s military, according to senior U.S. defence officials.

The U.S. also believes that the majority of Ukraine’s air and missile defence systems are still viable despite some 480 missile strikes, a senior US defence official told journalists.

He said that the U.S. remain concerned about Zelensky's safety. "Of course we do, and we are in touch with him," the official said.
