The status of the two laws, which were posted on the online portal of the Verkhovna Rada, the Ukrainian parliament, were updated, indicating they were received with Zelenskyy’s signature. The documents were voted on by the parliament on Tuesday.

Martial law and general mobilization in the country are now in place until Aug. 2.

Zelenskyy first declared martial law and general mobilization on Feb. 24, 2022, when the Russia-Ukraine war began, which Moscow calls a “special military operation.” The measures have since been extended multiple times.
