Russia brought a test batch of shells from Iran and is now trying to get another one. We are talking about a batch of about 20,000 shells.
This was stated by the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications Kyrylo Budanov in an interview with Forbes.
"A test batch was imported from Iran, now they are trying to import another batch, no longer a test batch, it is about 20,000 shells. This is nothing compared to the numbers that are being used," said Budanov.
When asked by a journalist whether the Russians have the opportunity to find these shells in North Korea, he answered that it is theoretically possible.
"Are they transporting from there? There are no confirmed cases in North Korea," Budanov noted.
According to the head of the GUR, mass production of artillery shells is now being established in the Russian Federation, which once again confirms that the enemy has no stockpiles of shells, they are not enough.
"For two months now, the Russian groups that operate in our country have been living in a mode of maximum saving of ammunition. More or less normally, ammunition is now used exclusively in Bakhmut and in the Limansk direction. They have tried to storm Vugledar several times, and will continue to try, so this was also added location. In all other areas, ammunition saving mode," Budanov said.
