As Ukraine signs drone deals and awaits licenses for Patriot missiles, the country's popular, tech-savvy defense minister, who helped Ukraine turn the tables on Russia through drone warfare, is fired.
One of Ukraine 's naval drones sank a Russian patrol ship docked in the Black Sea resort town of Gelendzhik, close to a luxurious mansion allegedly linked to Vladimir Putin.
The move sparked some to call for a peaceful protest and comes shortly after Ukraine's parliament accepted the resignation of Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko.
