A furious Volodymyr Zelenskyy has revealed he cut the military ranks from two Ukrainian generals after they were found out to be traitors.

In his daily address, the Ukrainian president explained how it was more important than ever for the people of his country to be loyal and dedicated to forcing back their Russian enemy.

After revealing he had given out nearly 140 medals for bravery and service to Ukrainian troops serving on the frontlines, he changed his tune.

"Regarding antiheroes," he said. "Now I do not have time to deal with all the traitors. But gradually they will all be punished.

"That is why the ex-chief of the Main Department of Internal Security of the Security Service of Ukraine Naumov Andriy Olehovych and the former head of the Office of the Security Service of Ukraine in the Kherson region Kryvoruchko Serhiy Oleksandrovych are no longer generals.

"According to Article 48 of the Disciplinary Statute of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, those servicemen among senior officers who have not decided where their homeland is, who violate the military oath of allegiance to the Ukrainian people as regards the protection of our state, its freedom and independence, will inevitably be deprived of senior military ranks.

"Random generals don't belong here!"

Zelenskyy didn't elaborate on what these two generals did that warranted the demotion.

He did however praise the work of everyone who has been fighting off the Russian invasion since it began in late February.

"And to the real heroes of the Security Service – the same absolute gratitude, just as to each and everyone who sincerely defends our state," he said. "There are really a lot of heroes among the servicemen. We are grateful to them!"

The Ukrainian leader explained how bizarre it feels to have been in the midst of war for more than a month now.

"All this March and five days of February, the invaders have been trying to break in and gain a foothold in our house from different directions – from land, from the sky, from the sea," he said.

"They go, fly, swim... There is so much evil in them, so much thirst for destruction that it reminds not of people, but of something otherworldly. Some monsters that burn and loot, attack and try to kill."

He added that Russia can try all it wants to take control of his land but they will fail and fail miserably.
