Ukrainian MPs have voted to accept the resignation of foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba.
His departure is part of a major reshuffle ordered by Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who said Ukraine needs "new energy" at a critical time in the war against Russia.
Mr Zelenskyy has proposed Andrii Sybiha as his replacement.
As we reported earlier (see post at 9.03am), Mr Kuleba was likely forced out because he clashes with Mr Zelenskyy's head of office, Andriy Yermak.
"Everyone knew they had conflict. I once even witnessed an episode of it," an unnamed official told Politico.
