-By summer 2023, however, U.S. officials told Ukraine that its forces should be ready for a reduced supply of shells in 2024 – barely half of the 2 million rounds of 155mm they ended up receiving in 2023.
-A senior officer on Ukraine’s general staff provided Reuters previously undisclosed figures that demonstrate the deadly difference artillery makes. When Ukraine was firing 10,000 shells per day, between 35 and 45 Ukrainian soldiers were killed daily and about 250 to 300 were wounded. But when the daily fire fell to half that, more than 100 Ukrainian soldiers were killed per day and at least a thousand were wounded.

-In a forest in western Poland, a complex on the same site where a factory was built by Nazi German occupiers to support an invasion of the Soviet Union now makes thousands of tons of TNT every year. The problem for Ukraine is that the factory, located near the city of Bydgoszcz, is the last surviving TNT plant in Europe or North America.
Ristus yksi tehdas vain länsimaissa tekee TNT.
Yliarvioidaanko nyt länsimaiden tuotantoa ja kykyä nostaa sitä? Aliarvioidaan ryssän ja kumppanien kykyä?
Ukrainalla taitaa olla kolmisensataa länsimaista tykkiä, toki moniko niistä jo tuhoutunut. Vaan juu odotellaan me silti miten ryssällä loppuu kaikki justiinsa.
