Ukraine Bill Proposes State Funerals for Top Security Officials, Expands SBU

A Ukrainian bill would grant state funerals to the Head of the General Staff, intelligence chiefs, and other Staff/NSDC members, and extend legal protections for 10 years post-term. The State Security Service (SBU) may grow to 5,500 employees. This signals institutional consolidation and elite protection amid ongoing conflict, but details on scope and rationale remain unclear.
