Russia Is Buying North Korean Artillery, According to U.S. Intelligence

Summary by Ground News

U.S. official: Russia is in the process of purchasing millions of rockets and artillery shells from North Korea. The finding comes after the Biden administration recently confirmed that the Russian military in August took delivery of Iranian-manufactured drones for use on the battlefield in Ukraine. Russia has deepened ties with countries including North Korea and Iran since its invasion of Ukraine in February. The Russian military continues to suffer from severe supply shortages in Ukraine, due in part to export controls and sanctions. Ukraine cut ties with North Korea in July after it emerged Pyongyang had joined Russia and Syria to recognise the independence of two self-proclaimed republics.
