Ukrainian National Security Secretary, Oleksiy Danilov revealed that the long-anticipated spring counteroffensive is still being planned and is still considering different options. 

"Today, people who know exactly all our plans, they do not exist. The final plan has not yet been approved. We have several options, they are all being worked out, and depending on the circumstances that will be in that or another period of time, certain decisions will be made," Danilov said. 

Back in April, the Ukrainian defense minister said that the Ukrainian forces were ready for the counteroffensive, however, later in May he noted that Kiev's allies had very high expectations of the counteroffensive. 

The spring counteroffensive which was reportedly set to start on April 30 has been postponed indefinitely due to a shortage of weapons, according to the Foreign Policy newspaper.
