Zelenskyy Axes Air Force Chief After F-16 Crash Scandal: War of Words Erupts Over Pilot’s Death
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has dismissed General Mykola Oleshchuk from his position as head of the Ukrainian Air Force following a public dispute related to a fatal F-16 jet crash.
The incident, which resulted in the death of pilot Aleksey ‘Moonfish’ Mes, has ignited a heated controversy between Oleshchuk and MP Mariana Bezuglaya from Zelenskyy’s ruling Servant of the People party.
Bezuglaya claimed that the jet was accidentally downed by a US-donated Patriot air defence system, a statement Oleshchuk vehemently denied, accusing her of undermining the military and aiding Russian propaganda.
At CPAC 2025 in Washington, DC, former President Donald Trump criticized US aid to Ukraine, calling it unfair and demanding repayment in rare-earth minerals and oil. Trump blamed previous administrations for excessive spending and insisted that Ukraine should compensate the US for financial support. He also accused Ukrainian President Zelensky of mismanaging funds and rejecting a minerals deal. Trump's remarks at CPAC 2025 fueled ongoing debates over US foreign aid and economic interests, sparking discussions ahead of the upcoming election. His speech reinforced his America First stance on global policies.Trump Speech

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has lifted the pause on the supply of deadly MK-84 bombs to Israel, allowing the shipment of 2,000-pound munitions to reach Tel Aviv. The bombs, known for their devastating impact, were previously withheld by the Biden administration due to concerns over civilian casualties in Gaza. The MK-84, used by the U.S. Air Force, is a powerful explosive designed to destroy fortified targets, with a high blast radius and lethal shrapnel effect. The move underscores the strong U.S.-Israel alliance while raising concerns over its impact on the ongoing conflict.
