Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired a high-ranking official from the country's security service, known as the SBU, after a shootout between the agency and Ukraine's military intelligence, known as the HUR, broke out in the streets of Kyiv on Wednesday. According to reports, three people from the HUR were wounded during the incident.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired a high-ranking official from the country's security service, known as the SBU, after a shootout between the agency and Ukraine's military intelligence, known as the HUR, broke out in the streets of Kyiv on Wednesday. According to reports, three people from the HUR were wounded during the incident.

The dismissal of Oleg Khramov, the head of the SBU's department for the protection of state secrets, came shortly after Zelenskyy described the shootout as an "absolutely disgraceful situation," adding that the Prosecutor General and the State Bureau of Investigation will probe the facts and that there would be accountability and personnel changes.

The clash in Kyiv's Dniprovskyi district reportedly broke out over the detention or disappearance of Stepan Kaplunov, a deputy commander in the Russian Volunteer Corps (RVC). The anti-Putin nationalist group, some of whose members embrace Nazi ideology, is overseen by the HUR and has been fighting alongside Ukraine since its inception in 2022.

In an interview with Ukrainian media on Thursday, Kaplunov alleged he was abducted by the SBU on Aug. 23 and that he was interrogated on the accusation he was in contact with Russia's Federal Security Service, the FSB.

Meanwhile, the SBU released a video of Kaplunov on Thursday in which he admits to contacts with Russian intelligence. His lawyer told Ukrainska Pravda that the video was filmed under the threat of torture and murder.

The events in Kyiv were absolutely disgraceful and the relevant authorities have been tasked with investigating so that there can be accountability and personnel changes for what took place. Shooting in Ukraine is only permitted at Russian occupiers. Any other shootout is unacceptable.

This shootout is the natural consequence of neo-Nazis, under the protection of intelligence services, being given safe haven to operate in Ukraine. Violence was always going to be the outcome when violent types are incorporated into the state's infrastructure.
