Ukraine's parliament voted on Thursday to dismiss Deputy Prime Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov, a key government figure who has overseen the wartime reconstruction effort and championed efforts to set up a vital Black Sea shipping lane, Ukrainian lawmaker Yaroslav Zheleznyak said on Telegram.

The 41-year-old's dismissal comes amid plans to break up his powerful ministry into two separate government portfolios. It was not immediately clear who would replace him.
