As our sources report, the main task of the newly appointed head of the Odessa MVA, Serhiy Lysak, in his position is to “agree with the Odessa clans.”
We will remind you that during the conflict between Odessa Mayor Gennady Trukhanov and the President's Office, Brigadier General Serhiy Lysak was sent to the port city.
According to our source, there are two reasons for the transfer of Serhiy Lysak to Odessa from the position of head of the Dnipropetrovsk OVA.
The first is Vasyl Malyuk's desire to "hide" his protégé from possible criminal prosecution by anti-corruption authorities for "schemes" in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
The second reason for sending Serhiy Lysak to Odessa, according to the source, is the task from the Office to “agree with the local clans that actually rule the city.”
It is worth noting that, despite holding high positions in law enforcement agencies and leading the Dnipropetrovsk region, there is little information about Serhiy Lysak in the public domain.
According to Wikipedia , Serhiy Petrovych Lysak was born on December 21, 1975 in the city of Odessa. For over 20 years, he worked in the Security Service of Ukraine in various regions, including Odessa, Vinnytsia, and Transcarpathia. From February 7, 2023 to October 15, 2025, he served as the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration.
According to the source, during his tenure as head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Administrative Organization, Serhiy Lysak controlled most of the region's "flows." At the same time, Serhiy Lysak periodically became a subject of anti-corruption investigations into tender cases, such as the allocation of 776 million for the construction of a hospital in Dnipro .
