Gen. Oleksandr Tarnavsky has replaced Lutsenko as commander. Tarnavsky previously led the Operational Strategic Group Tavria, overseeing the area where Ukrainian forces launched their main offensive toward Melitopol during the summer of 2023 and was one of the key commanders of the offensive.

Some corps include inactive brigades or units that exist only on paper without actual personnel. It remains unknown what the goal is for these paper brigades.
