Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy dismissed the head of the state guards on May 9, two days after two of its members were accused of plotting to assassinate him. Zelenskiy issued a decree dismissing Serhiy Rud.
No successor was identified. Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) said this week that it had caught two men — colonels in the state guard service — accused of plotting the assassination of Zelenskiy and other top officials.
It said the men were recruited by Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) who leaked classified information to Moscow.
