Ukrainian Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko resigns hours after insisting he would not
Ukrainian Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko submitted a letter of resignation on the evening of 7 September 2026, hours after publicly telling journalists he had no intention of stepping down voluntarily. The resignation came against the backdrop of NABU and SAP's "Carthage" special operation, which exposed a criminal organization inside the Office of the Prosecutor General and led to searches at Kravchenko's office and home. President Zelensky, who met with Kravchenko earlier the same day, said a submission for dismissal would be sent to the Verkhovna Rada.
