Russia has received millions of artillery shells from North Korea
North Korea has shipped more than six thousand containers carrying millions of munitions to Russia since July, South Korean Defense Minister Shin Won-sik said, Sky News reported.
“6,700 containers sent from North Korea to Russia might have included more than 3 million 152mm artillery shells, or 500,000 122mm rounds,” he said.
"It could possibly be a mix of the two, and you can say that at least several million shells have been sent," the minister added.
“Despite hundreds of North Korean munitions factories running at around 30% of their capacity due to a lack of raw materials and electricity, those producing artillery shells for Russia were operating ‘at full swing’,” Won-sik said.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
