A 26-year-old U.S. Marine Corps veteran was killed in a mortar strike last month in Ukraine while working to evacuate civilians, his family confirmed to ABC News this week.

Cooper Andrews died on April 19 in the Bakhmut area, his cousin Willow Pastard, who is speaking on his family's behalf, told ABC News.

The State Department announced Monday that an American citizen died in Ukraine, though did not provide more details or an identity "out of respect for the family's privacy during this difficult time."

"We are in touch with the family and providing all possible consular assistance," a spokesperson for the agency said in a statement.

At least nine deaths of U.S. citizens who have volunteered to fight in Ukraine have been officially reported since the war began last year, according to the State Department.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the Ukrainian counteroffensive will start before Ukraine receives F-16 fighter jets sought from Western countries.

"Frankly speaking, it would help us a lot. But we also understand that we can't drag it [the counteroffensive] out, which is why we'll start before we receive F-16 [aircrafts] or other models," Zelenskyy said at a news conference for Scandinavian media held in Kyiv on Saturday, according to a script provided by Reuters.

He added, "But to calm Russia down with the fact that we'd still need a couple of months to train on the aircrafts and only then we'd start; No, this won't happen. We'll start and go forward, while at the same time, simultaneously, I think this is very important [to receive western fighter aircrafts.]"

He said Ukraine is "capable of putting an end to this war."

Also on Saturday, Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said Ukraine received a signal from some countries about the readiness to start training Ukrainian pilots on F-16 fighter jets.

According to Kuleba, the F-16 fighter jet is the ideal aircraft due to its technical characteristics, although Kyiv does not overlook other aircraft, either. The minister added that the decisive word on issuing F-16s will be with the United States, because these are American fighters.
