A major corruption scandal unfolds in Ukraine, with Tymur Mindich, a former associate of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, accused of a $100 million embezzlement scheme involving the state nuclear energy company. Mindichs close ties to Zelenskyy and his rise in power, particularly in the energy sector, are under scrutiny. Two top government ministers have resigned, and Mindich has fled the country. The case against Mindich relies on wiretaps allegedly showing his influence over Herman Halushchenko and potential dealings with a top drone manufacturer.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
