Ukraine Poised for Long-Awaited Counter-Offensive Against Russian Forces

According to one of Ukraine's top security officials, Oleksiy Danilov, the country is prepared to launch its anticipated counter-offensive against Russian occupying forces. While no specific date was disclosed, Danilov emphasized the significance of the forthcoming assault to regain territory.

He stressed the government's responsibility to seize this historic opportunity and warned against making any mistakes. The interview with Danilov, interrupted by a summons from President Zelensky, sheds light on Ukraine's determination and readiness for the offensive.

Despite the withdrawal of some Wagner mercenaries from Bakhmut, Danilov cautioned that they are regrouping in other locations and will continue to engage in combat. Furthermore, he addressed the deployment of nuclear weapons to Belarus by Russia, emphasizing Ukraine's awareness and readiness.

The impending counter-offensive carries immense importance for Ukraine's aspirations to break through Russian lines and reclaim sovereign territory.
