ChrisO_wiki1/ Russia's ammunition shortage in eastern Ukraine is reportedly so severe that its troops there have reportedly been issued with completely unusable ammunition, including shells which are so rusty they have simply disintegrated. ⬇️
2/ After complaints from Yevgeny Prigozhin about Wagner fighters being denied ammunition, Alexander Khodakovsky of the pro-Russian Vostok Battalion has written that the situation is the same for everyone – indicating an extreme case of 'shell famine'.
3/ The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel has posted photos of some of the ammunition that it says Russian regular forces have been issued. This suggests that the shortage isn't just confined to 'independent' mercenary or militia groups but also affects the army itself.
4/ The supplies include "cases of inadequate quality ammunition, including category 2 and 3 (with defects or generally unsuitable for combat use)". As can be seen from the pictures, the ammunition now is unusable and probably unsafe to handle, likely resulting from poor storage conditions. /end

Когда Пригожин заявляет о наличие боеприпасов на складах Минобороны в достаточном количестве - он не владеет информацией. Ситуация с боеприпасами крайне плачевная, но этот факт тщательно скрывают. В распоряжении ВЧК-ОГПУ оказались документы и фото, которые свидетельствуют о том, что дефицит БК также испытывают и подразделения вооруженных сил, в связи с чем отмечаются случаи поступления в подразделения боеприпасов ненадлежащего качества, в том числе 2 и 3 категории (с дефектами или вообще непригодные для боевого применения).
Pēteris Krišjānis@ChrisO_wiki kinda was predicted 3 - 4 months ago. So much for "Spring offensive".
Dmytro Morykit Music@ChrisO_wiki that sounds good well deserved🤖
